What is timken # for front wheel hub?

Is the number Timken HA590032 the right number for a 2004.5 dodge ram 2500 4x4? Im sure I have 4 wheel ABS.

thanks

I recommend the Timken or the SKF bearings for longevity. You cannot go wrong either way.

I replaced mine with some life time warranty ones from o'reily auto parts, 5k later, all gone to hell and I had to tear it apart. I put timkens on both sides, and of course they have the metal bearing holder parts, and I have had no problems. I won't do anything but timkens on my other 2 trucks. AND the timkens were $15 a set cheaper than the others!

I have used both Timken and SKF and I've had better luck with the Timmys. Just my experience.
