The bearing I bought doesn't look like that one. It doesn't have the larger hole between the wheel studs. I'm pretty sure that the bolts go in from the rear on our vehicles.

Update

Well once again one or maybe both bearings went out. TO recap these were cheap chinese made replacement from E Bay for about $100 for both shipped.

I would avoid these. One failed in about a month. Now 6 months later somethings afoot.

Today I went on the hunt. When it comes to tapered roller bearings there is two BIG names, Timken and SKF.

Advanced Auto only carries no named Chinese ones. Dont bother with them!

O'Reily's/Murray's carries SKF hubs- and its cheaper than most other retail ones @ $115.99 THis is a 2 year warranty also.

Included with the hub was an updated spindle nut! And the proper torque specs!

I will attach pics soon!

Heres where you start...



Make sure you have a 35mm deep well and a 1/2" breaker barand a set of nuts, your going to need them.




Nuts!!!???

















Thats what all has tocome off to get to the wheel bearing. 2 bolts to pull caliper off, 2 bolts to pull brake pad mounting off, 3 bolts on wheel bearing.

13mm 6 point stuby socket, 1 3" extension, 1 6" extension, 12mm 6 point, 5/8" open end wrench, 35mm Deep Well Scoket w/1/2 breaker and finally a BFHammer...And about 1 hour of time.

Unfortunately I must of picked the wrong side. THe bearing did feel bad though, so maybe both went...

The bad bearing looks just like a new bearing but theres surface rust on everything.

There is no visual indication it is bad.

So in the third pic on the first page where the spindle is hanging out is that whole thing the bearing?....I see a sensor connection on the bottom right of the pic...so I'm guessing that its the whole assembly?

That connection is just where the hub plugs in. The bearing has been removed in that picture.

Why do you need just a new nut, did you, bust-a-nut?

no, for the reason ryan posted above. its quite possible that the old nut gm used, is whats causing premature wearing of our bearings.

i'd swap both, if i knew where to get them.
