is the part that the hub and wheel bearing ride on does that come 0off or is that attached to the rear end? if it does come off do you think that one from the junkyard would be ok to replace the old one and do you know the proper torque to put on the bearings because I just rebuilt the bearings and hub and then I went from Houston to college station and they chewed themselves up so im thinking that I put too much torque on them I didn't notice it till I got back but I took it apart and the arm that it all rides on got egged so Im guessing that I am going to need new bearings and races. along with that left hand threaded nut do you think one from the junk yard would work or should I just get a new one

pick up the rear end put it on jackkstands and crank it and put it in drive get out and listen if you hear a slight roar that means it is either the ring and pinion or the carrier bearings and then turn it off and try to shake the tires and if they wiggle that means your wheel bearings are going out
