you sure the hub was bad?

and did they check that your vacuum solenoid on the firewall was good? or that the vacuum lines were in good condition?


when was your truck built? late model 06 trucks have the 5yr/60k powertrain warranty

I had a hub go bad around 25K miles. I got the hub for around 240 at Napa and did it myself. I bought the truck used and didn't even think about warranty. Then I found out it would have been covered after talking to the service manager. Sometimes I'm an idiot.
