1999-2007 gm truck 2wd front wheel hub bearing replacement

If your looking for a bearing find it here i love timkin as a brand they make affordable higher end bearings that last. Timken SP450301 Axle Bearing and Hub Assembly

So you hearing a growl in your front end or its very loose when checking your front end out. you may have a bearing that has passed its prime and needs to be replaced . in the case of mine i let it get to far because puting it off can cause more damage. it honestly was horrible o drive the noise made passengers uneasy i as a mechanic told myself i didn't drive it enough to afford doing it right away.
Well this was needed and one side was a major pain.
tools needed
are as follows
A hammer( a big one)
3/8ths ratchet and socket set 3inch extension and 15mm shallow socket specifically
and a 18mm socket with a breaker bar is ideal
and the tools to remove your wheel , 22mm/7/8ths socket , jack and jack stand.
a t-55 torx socket for the caliper guide pin bolts
the full how to video is up now
