1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee ZJ 4x4 Rear Wheel Bearing

[@BurnerJones]

Thanks, I have a bit of a roaring noise that is really noticeable with the back seats down. Hoping it isn't the pinion bearing, I'll try this first.

[@jnamemoption7742]

Word to the wise; tighten the pinion shaft lock bolt before loosening it. That bolt tends to break upon removal. By tightening the bolt slightly any bond between the bolt, carrier, and pinion shaft will be reduced and then the bolt will be less likely to snap off into two pieces. Unless broken bolt screw extractions are your thing then this little pro tip may save time and money..

Good stuff. You think the wheel spacers caused undue stress on that bearing? Im considering pushing mine out an 1". Thanks, stay well

Heey little question, i need wheel bearings I had two options to buy the bearing you show in the video but i could also buy taper bearings. Are your bearing the only type fitted? I have a an 98 ZJ dana 35. Wich looked like the ones i need.

What rear-end is this? Dana 35?

[@johna.copelandiv8339]

I wish to replace my rear pinion in my differential

[@kyledonahue33]

when you put the diff on dont you get a bunch of silicone in there? and do the bearings not need to get packed with grease?

[@murraysullivan5368]

The bearing is lubricated from differential fluid down the axle tube

[@tjsmountaingarage1613]

The silicone will squeeze out the side a little but not enough that it will get mixed with the gear oil. Just lay on enough to get a good seal and that's all

Shouldn't the bearing get packed with grease?
