Bad innner bearing? - Diesel Forum

It's seems this @#$% 03 likes to go through front hubs like Al Davis goes through head football coaches.

My question is this...could a bad inner bearing in the differential housing cause the problem?

I have noticed that the axel hangs low putting the stub shaft at a weird angle in the hub bearing. I think this might be the reason it keeps messing up the left front side bearing. This will be the third time it has to be replaced.

How involved is checking/replacing the inner bearing?

I know there have been a lot of threads on hubs...but I couldn't find one that answered this particular question. Thanks

It could be a number of things including over torque when the replacement parts went in… also could be the first time it went bad it could have damaged the housing, remember these hubs have plastic bearing retainers…

It’s a little dough up front however I think you would be pleased with the Dynatrac free spin conversion Dynatrac
