No idea. I just learned about it on this repair. I know they did it on 45 and 5500s but had no idea about 3500 pickups. Even the 3500 cab and chassis had them I believe

I put a duralast gold wheel bearing on my 2wd truck and was confused why it had the hole for a 4wd truck.. but Ive had no problems knock on wood. This was a 2004 Chevy 2500hd.

On the two wheel drive and 4-wheel drive wheel bearing that's pretty common especially on the Ford stuff like in particular the Ford escape all the wheel bearings are four-wheel drive even if you have a two-wheel drive it was like that from the factory

To the NUMB SKULL in this comment section. You said to Steve where did he find parts that time of night that were open and available. How do u know if Steve didn’t have parts laying around or previously picked them up as the customer called many hours earlier maybe we don’t know. This is why we shouldn’t assume. Is none of our business only Steve’s.

He did end up calling around 5:30 Parts were picked up around 7ish. Unfortunately can't just drop and run the second they call but I did my best 😅 I wish I could afford to keep parts lying around but for this truck they were EXPENSIVE. Parts were one $700 by themselves 😬

@CPSteveMiller Жыл бұрын
Weight has nothing to do with front wheel bearing failures. It's a simple pretrip. There are PLENTY of warning signs. If this happens, it's completely driver fault. Loose steering wheel ABS light Wobbling or shaking front Grinding noise Sometimes, even a clicking sound I've hauled 21,000 pounds for years on big tires and never once, and I never will ever experience this. Common sense mixed with experience comes a long way. Just don't ignore your warning signs or pretrip.

He'd have been down for at least a week + the easy $500 tow(at a minimum). Dude would've been out at least 2500 + the days worth of work. Total bill was $1549.94 and he was rolling by 4am to Knoxville Tennessee. I asked if he wanted to tow it to a safe spot but he said he did not want to pay towing on top. I had to get my truck and trailer towed down in Florida 1 mile and it was $300 during the day. No shops being open it would've been a gamble as to where he took it. Whole endeavor would've cost him thousands just in down time not including the the cash output. He made a good call on this one in my opinion 😅
