Wheel Bearing?

Just wondering if anyone has pressed an old front hub assembly apart to see if the bearings could be replaced.

I have one that's getting noisy and was hoping to find a cheap fix.

Thanks, Devin

I have never seen anyone successfully take one apart to service it. I have seen people drill into the housing and put in a grease zirt to make them greasable. There was alot of talk of folks thinking that putting grease in the ABS sensor hole would get grease into a sealed unit. I dont think that would work and it would eventually give your abs sensor fits. the only successfull way of a few that did it was drilling into a certain sport and putting a zert so when greased its greased under pressure. not sure if those that did that were early 2nd gens without abs. because the unit housing is diff.

found it. www.mark74.com

go to truck and then ram modifications
