Default Front Bearings

Looking to put some front bearings on my 02 2wd Cummins... Any tips to share would be great! Ive done it before but it was on my 75 k10 4x4 I figured this would be a little different...Maybe size for the axle nut on the 2wd?? Please shed some light!

Do some checking on the web - there is a 2001 Dodge Ram Pickup Shop Manual (PDF file - about 80 Megs) that you can download ....text searchable. For basic jobs such as changing wheel bearings - the shop manual is an excellent place to start.

Start checking here: Download PDF Dodge Ram 2001 Service Manual | PDFTown.com

They can be quite the pain in the butt on these trucks. They can get pretty stuck on the steering knuckle.... A BIG hammer, or slide hammer are usually needed
