Alex, I wonder why Ford OEM's didn't come with the mounting studs, interesting. My Timken pn# 515020 came with the mounting studs, just wondering since the OEM's are so much more.

Ummmm, they need the money?

They believe they have the only game in town?

They're counting on us not knowing any better?

They've got a lot of overhead to cover?

I dunno, maybe lots more reasons.

From what I hear, the OEMs were supplied by Timken.

Sounds like the norm anymore Pop, just wondering if Napa or any other parts houses do the same, no mounting studs included, whats next, no yellow o-ring? Make's for some easy decisions on where to purchase with all complete hardware.
