Default 2002 Dodge Cummins Wheel Bearings Installation - Videos and Photos
Going to have to replace my Front Passenger side wheel bearings

Signs they are going bad include: a hum or roar that can be stopped when turning the steering wheel in one direction but not the other
Thats me , Too bad these are over $300

There are 4 (12 point [15 mm deep] if I remember correctly) bolts that bolt the hub to the rotor - hit them with some penetrating oil.

If yours are like mine were then don't forget the sledge hammer,and your lunch.
You can put pressure on the hub bearing from the rear by using a extension and socket and turning the steering wheel to wedge it,be careful,you can bend things....
$230+shipping from rock auto.

You might as well do your axle u-joints while you're in there. :upup:

Check your ball joints over REALLY good before you start too. Might need them.

My front U-joints made it over 400k already,not sure why everything is lasting so good. might be cause I rarely use 4 wheel hop.

Not trying to hijack,but where the heck can a guy get a rebuild kit for the control arms?
