Hey guys. I am a little stuck. I really need to change the back bearings, but I'm really unsure what I need to pick up. I went to AutoZone and when I asked for rear bearings for my truck (signature), they gave me 6 different options. When you guys replace your rear bearings, what parts do you get?


PS. I tried doing a search on Google and this forum and got nowhere.

 

please

 

please obey forum rules and wait 24 hours before bumbing a post!

which bearing are you replacing? the outter roller bearings? the diff carier bearings? the pinion bearing? which ones? either way your going to need new diff fluid and a diff cover gasket.

 

Holy crap. Ummm, I don't know. I just thought I needed to replace the rear wheel bearings. I get a hum in the rear end the faster I go. I guess I'll have to take it to a shop and have them diagnose it.

 

If it is the wheel bearings, there are a few options. There are different brands... Stock replacements... And then there are the problem solvers. Any of them will work properly if they are specific to your application. The problem solvers move the sealing surface to get away from any groove that may have been worn in.
