My truck has 204k miles on it, and i'm starting to think the noise i had attributed to my MT tires is actually the wheel bearing. With the miles on the truck, i think its a good enough idea to just go ahead and replace the bearings before they get any worst. I have a harbor Freight 20-ton shop press and have found this video and document laying out the process to where I feel I could get this job done on a weekend. (fingers crossed). I have priced out the parts and for doing both front wheel bearings and re-using my hubs i'm looking at about $500.
I'm listing out the parts below, please let me know if there is any additional part that I might be missing.
Bearing Assembly
Product ID: 43570-60031 - $179.89
Inner Seal
Product ID: 90316-83001 - $44.05
Outer Seal
Product ID: 90312-87001 - $21.18
Bearing Assembly O-Ring
Product ID: 90301-99182 - $6.41
Parts are 4,5,6 & 7 on the diagram below.
I did see on another post where someone got the bearing and hub assembly together and preassembled but cost is $449.00 per side.
Let me know if there is anything I might be missing or not taking into account that could delay or stop this project from taking place. I'm still in the planning stages and would prefer to do the work myself then take it to a mechanic. Baring any serious objections or events that would prevent me from doing this. I'll hopefully post progress and how the process went for me at the end of the month.
