Time for me to replace front wheel hub bearing!!!
Yup when i got the truck about 1.5 year ago i replaced the started replacing the bad ball joins so i did all 4 of them. Well when i went in for a alignment they showed me how bad my passenger side hub bearing was so they replaced for me and i just had to buy the part at there cost! no lebor they were friends of mine . Well now about year and a half later the driver front one has some play in it and it is squeaking! Anyone no of a cheep place to get one? The cheepest i have found on ebay is 90shipped. My truck is a 98 4x4 f150. Anywhere else? If anyone have the size of the axle bolt please let me know. Im going to do a write up for everyone else.

The nut on the cv at the hub is a 36mm, the smaller bolts at the front diff if you want to take the whole cv axle out are a 12 point, 12mm, same as the bolts that hold the drive shaft to the rear diff.

Hey man I know the feelin! I replace them often, I got all of mine at thepartsbin.com/ I payed 190 though, as aposed to 300? that AutoZone wanted. I called to place the order and got an extra 10bucks off. It ain't no 90 dollars IMO. Well now that I think of it I am not even sure if we have the same part I have an 03' 4x4? I have changed all of mine because I wasn't paying anyone and it was pretty easy.

I was just including that in case he wanted to take the cv axle completely out. Just saying the bolts at the front diff are the same as the rear driveshaft.

I just replaced my whole hub assembly on the driver side front 2 days ago! i cant find my pictures but it was easy as heck! I payed 166 for the assembly.. Took about 30 minutes to do it for a first time. 3 bolts holding it on, 2 bolts for the brake caliper, 3 screws for the brake cover, and the 1 big nut on the cv shaft....
