Question changing front wheel bearing
Just wondering if I can change just the bearing or do I have to change the whole hub assembly kit $$$$ on a 2000 F-250 4x4. thanks

Thanks for the reply
Thanks for the reply
Yes I have. It's no more difficult than any wheel bearing job, and a lot less messy.

I just spent almost $700 of freaking wheel bearings. The replacement is not hard, but the price is ridiculous.

Yeah .... You're probably right bass' , too many things in my limited capacity memory . I know why the manufacturer wants things built like this ( cost ) , but it would be nice if the aftermarket would come up with a better ( cheaper ) alternative .

Yeah, I wish they'd get an aftermarket solution for this out as well. I'm gettin a nice clunkin noise from somewhere in the front end right now. Gonna investigate this weekend. I have a feeling it's either ball joints or wheel bearings.
