Now they come as a bearing and hub assembly...so basically they are the same part.
if i replace the wheel bearing and hub together will i need to have my truck re-aligned. its fixing to be winter and i dont feel like listening to it.

u stink!!!! oh well. i can mount them and balance them myself. i know someone that has the machines. Life time rotations? its never worth the time and gas to take it somewhere and get my tires rotated. i live to far from anyplace that does that. and it only takes me bout 5 mins to rotate them with a couple friends helpin.

Got the hub in and took it for a spin......















No more noise!!! Finally.
Now to get some tires...
toyos and swamplites

ok the hub didnt fix the noise. i didnt get to take it down the same route goin to work.
HELP!!!
what else could be makin the noise??
I know its hard to describe a noise by typing but like i said. it almost sounds like mudgripps on smooth asphalt. almost like a bearing in a bind...
I think its coming from the passengers side front wheel. but the resonating in the cab could be making it sound different? But its loudest when taking a left turn doin over 50mph or decel from 60ish to 40mph....
ITS DRIVING ME CRAZY!!
Could it be my tires? or just got a bad hub?? Probably.. thats how my luck goes...
Thanks Guys!!

Have a look at the rear end and see what the ring and pinion look like. Its starting to sound like the rear end is going out. If you can get someone in the back of the truck and take them for a ride, they might be able to confirm the location of the noise.
