Based on my experience when I started this thread years ago it is a rear bearing. Read the thread from the beginning. I explained how I thought it was the left front, replaced it, and proceeded to replace rt front, rt rear, and it was not until the left rear that the noise/grind went away.

I watched a 20 ton press do nothing to break the bearing free of the hub. The guy that did my rear bearings still took it to a machine shop since his 20 ton press was not enough. These things are a beast to replace. especially the rear since the entire axle shaft has to be removed. A...

Jim I was only into replacing the rear wheel bearings after I replaced both front, which did not fix the buzz/hum I could hear and feel in the steering wheel and at my feet which led me to believe it was a front bearing. I also replaced the tires during all this, not because of the noise but...

I disagree on some points. Most any garage will not be able to just "press off" the front bearings from the hub. I watched a 20 ton press do nothing to break the bearing free from the hub. Then the torque require on the nut is well beyond the average torque wrench. If I recall correctly it...

Did you have to do any trimming for the 285s? My 1.25" all-pros should be here this week. Did you have any issues with your alignment (Caster) with your set up? My set up is similar, but I used Moog Replacement V8 4R front springs (over an inch taller Free height than V6 springs). With 5100s...

Did you or are you selling your LR UCAs? If so I might be interested. I have not had an alignment since my 5100s and Moog Springs. So I'm slightly worried they won't be able to get the Caster in specs. Waitn for my All-Pro 1.25" spacers to get here before the alignment. Been Back-ordered...
