ok.. had the left front wheel beariing blow up. Got it off with not alot of problems and there wasnt much left.

Trying to get this back together but I want to know is there some sort of spacer that is like 3/8" ring that goes between the new bearing and the spline/ujoint?? The reason I ask is I havent seen it mentioned anywhere but there was a ring that was MANGLED that came off and there is something on the right side.

If so, where to get it?

 

Sure it wasn't part of the bearing, or bearing cage or something like that.

 

I am gonna try to upload a pic

Thats just sort of a dust cover for the back of the bearing, one of mine got manged beyond belief the same way yours did , i didnt bother replacing it , and have had no trouble.

 

That looks like part of the bearing. On the back of the new bearing you should see what looks like a seal but it is a permanent part untilt he bear goes. Mine went and this seal was just hanging there. All unit bearings are like this. I could be looking at the pics wrong though.

Here is a pic of mine after it went


And the ring that was hanging there.

 

i just replaced the bearings in my dodge like 2 months ago in my 05 3500 and i did not see anything like that in front or back so must be part of the old one. and ill tell u i replace the rotors in the back that is an all day thing its not fun but i got it done..
