I would like to buy one, if that's not an option then I'd be interested in the loaner.

How can I proceed?

 

Your only 2 options are to PM Andy (Snowseeker) to buy or Sean (wpnaes) for the loaner.

 

Well boys I have some somewhat bad news on the hub zerk....snowseeker I wanted to let you know right away...now hear me out guys before you get all on me...I have a 05' F250 4X4 FX4 and recently had a 05' F-150 4X4. Just got rid of the F150...after using the zerk on it...Well heres the story...I also have a 04' Tahoe...took the rotors and mounting brackets off today..and looked in the back...hmmmm ABS bolted in the same way..so I figured might as well check it out...took out the ABS, held in the same way as the fords with a small bolt...and guess what fits...the hub zerk...so just to make things clear this bad news is my wifes vehicle not mine so don't be so hard on me...but Snowseeker...hmmm another market for you....just lettin ya know...This thing is versitle (sp)...thought I would keep ya on the edge of your seat...LOL....Its like a magic tool.....you better start hiring....LOL...

 

Same thing works on my wife's Town and Country too. Lol

 

Snowseekers gonna have to hire after finding all this out...LOL...his orders are going to be goin up..and up..and up...

 

Time to start a post on the Chebby forum.

2004 4x4 silverado 2500 HD wheel bearing failure

 

Is the ABS hole into the bearing housing though? When I had the ABS sensors out of my parents yukon I thought for sure the ABS ring was on the axle and not in the bearing unit? The problem was the traction control light would flicker as you left a stop sign and the motor would cut out (traction control), what has to be done is the ABS sensor pulled out, the surface filed down smooth and flat again and ABS sensor reinstalled. No problems since.

I would have to charge the chevy guys more though for the fitting.

 

Snowseeker
do you want us to send a check for the fittings or how are you handling this. i tried to send a pm but your box was full, go figure!

Thanks

EDIT: I figured it out "Check is in the mail"

 

Andy,

The "WIFE'S" tahoe is a 2004 and it has the abs sensor in about the same exact location as my 2005 F150. And it was an exact fit. I was happy to be able to grease them.

Whew...glad I own a Ford...and got mine cheaper...so I should probably charge the wife more for using it...

 

Received yesterday, thank you!

 

check is in the mail for 2 fittings, thanks

 

I wonder if the sale of unit bearings is down due to the existence of all these zerks?

 

Well if you think about it...either they make thier money thru parts...and we pay for it...or if they cant make it they just ask the goverment for $$ and we pay still......nice vicious circle...they got us commin and goin...

 

Sorry for the multi colors of zerks, I used up the last two I had and the store was still sold out of the nice silver ones I normally get so I had to get get the next longer threaded one. I have bought them completely out of zerks a few times now, I told them to get in an extra box next time.


I would like to hope so! I can't stand "unserviceable and expensive junk". I am glad I can help people save their unserviceable units! I don't know why ford got away from the old tested and proven tapered serviceable bearings. I guess they weren't making enough money off replacement parts with them.

 

You will have to have them send you a zerk with their payment if you want the rest of the tool...LOL...
