so must be since last year there was a tiny squeek when turning. thought it was the rotors, so had them resurfaced and could have been a culprit too. about 2 days after putting them on, got a worse noise. then just yesterday got a bad grinding noise and looked it up on youtube to verify the sounds. i put the truck on a jack both sides, drivers didnt have any play, but the passenger did.

whats out there for the nnbs? im gona check pricing at pepboys, advance, and united auto supply. whats available online? guys told me timkin or moog is good, gona try to get pricing on acdelco as well.

gona freak me out having to drive with that noise for a week before i can get it replaced. guess ill just drive like a grandma.

that was a wheel hub? thought it was the spindle that broke or something from the x14's on a 2wd or whatever he had?

It would take a lot more than x14 to break a spindle. The 2wd hubs are not as strong as the 4x4 hubs.

I can't for the world of me find a 4wd timkin hub assembly. Rockauto.com didn't have them No one with timkin local doesn't have them idk it doesn't make sense that they didn't make a hub for 4wd nnbs.

If you are going to try running 4wd hubs you will need the stub shafts otherwise they will fail.

Sp500301 is the Timken part number for the nnbs 4wd. I found it in 15 seconds on Google.

i thought it was too if you look above at the 2 links, just completely lost it when i opened them on summit and say Sp500301 and Sp500300 and thought they listed them as RWD lol. wierd that united auto supply and rockauto didnt have them. got a bunch from rockauto printed though.

like this summit lists sp500301 as this "Wheel Hub and Bearing Assembly, Front, Cadillac, Chevy, GMC, RWD, Each" and sp500300 as this "Wheel Hub and Bearing Assembly, Front, Cadillac, Chevy, GMC, Each". why would they list it as rwd when it is supposidly 4wd?
