If you find it's the same part# as for a 99 4x4, I'll give you my used one (in good working condition)...just pay for shipping. I replaced it thinking it was bad but it actually ended up being the control arm bushings.

you will be buying the entire hub. I think mine were $235, but not sure.
They will be very hard to pull out of the spindle! I had to cut the ball joints and have them pressed out. It was several tons.
I then cleaned up the casting and used anti-seize.

Mine came apart farily easy.......... after using an extremely large hammer. Overall, it just depends on how rusted toghether it all is. I think I bought mine from NAPA...about $150. Like I said, you're welcome to have mine if you find it's the same part#. Driverside sealed 4x4 hub assembly, just pay for shipping.

I was told the 01's and 02's were fitted alot tighter.
And I think the part numbers are different for 99 and 2000.

same part use a socket on the bolt after loosening them up and turn the steering wheel as a press on the bolts it will pop out . theres a good write up that will walk you though it do a search in the 2nd gen section
