Review on Enhanced Performance: Timken HA590032 Axle Bearing and Hub Assembly by Robert Ogrodnik

Revainrating 5 out of 5

This is not an easy task, make sure you have the necessary tools before taking it apart.

The universal joints on the front axles of my Ram 4x4 need replacing at 180,000 miles so I figured since I'm disassembling everything I might as well get a new front hub/bearing install knots. They are pre-lubricated, so loosening the four bolts about halfway and then twisting the handlebars is enough to pull them out of their mounts. The work is not pleasant but doable, I am 75 years old. You will need a set of 3/4" sockets and a pry bar to loosen the nut on the end of the axles.

Pros
  • Item Package Weight: 17.75 lbs
Cons
  • Hard to tell
