2000 Blazer 4WD front wheel bearing seal?
 

Hi,
I am in the process of replacing my third set of front wheel bearings on the 2000 4WD S 10. The last set on Timkens only lasted 8 months- the failure is corrosion in the bearing and they get real noisy. Does anyone out there have a seal solution for the inboard side of the knuckle? In the past I have replaced front hub assembly on my daughters cavalier and the aftermarket hubs came with a lip seal that pressed into the backside of the knuckle and sealed around the wheel shaft. This seemed like a nice solution to keep the nasty stuff out of the bearing. I have not been able to find a hub assembly for the Blazer with the extra seal or one in the seal catalogs that will fit both the knuckle (3.386 in bore) and wheel shaft (2.201). Have any of you found a solution to seal the back side of the 4wd hub from the elements? I am hoping this my help my hub bearing failure problem, I live on a nasty dirt road that is heavily chlorided.

I replaced my passenger side hub 2 weeks ago, and I got a Duralast part this time since it was cheaper versus the Napa Premium one that was on there. It came with a new rubber gasket. Never had a corrosion problem with my hubs.

2000 Blazer Broken Wheel Hub Bolt
 

Hi Guys:
I'm new to the forum so bear with me.
I have a 2000 Blazer LS 4 x 4 and was in the process of replacing the hubs and one bolt snapped. I took one of the 3 to the local parts stores here and have been unsuccessful finding a bolt that will tread properly into the hub assembly. I checked the Hayes and Chilton manuals to no avail... Your thoughts???

Thank you.
