What Causes Wheel Hubs To Fail?


Recommended Posts

Ah, my gtp was the same way.. yes the truck is awd. I bought my own hubs and had my local mom and pop shop replace both for 150 bucks.. not too bad, but next time ill just do it myself. Nice having a truck that lived its whole life in florida, very clean on the underside :D

 

Not hard at all; after you take the tire and brake rotor off it's only 3 more bolts to get it free of the steering knuckle - if you have 4x4 or AWD then you have the additional hassle of removing the half-shafts, you will need a huge socket (34mm or 36mm???). I had to do this on my 2000 Buick Regal, it also has front hub assemblies just like the trucks and I had both replaced in less than 90-minutes. It's not hard, just a hassle...
