Wheel Bearing?????
Well i took my truck to the dealership to get it realigned and well it turned out that i got bad ball joints on the passenger side, so i took it home and decided to change them myself, well when i took my wheel bearing off i discovered that the bearing is shot and it cut a groove in my axle, priced one at the local parts store for a early 99 rear abs and they told me like $400 and they cant get the axle....is there anywhere else cheaper to go???, i didnt plan on spending this much...

Are you talking about the needle bearing on the back of the hub assembly? If so, the needle bearing is replaceable (the dealer says its not replaceable, but they're wrong) and you can get the axle stub if you ask for a 450 or 550 model. I dont know the info, but someone who does will chime in soon.
