im working on my front wheel bearing today and kinda stuck. Hopefully these pics will help. it looks really chewd up, what is the 2nd pic? any advice is much appreciated. im reading my haynes but im not sure what new parts i need to buy.

 

well, mine's a 2wd, so yours looks a bit different than mine, and I have not ever broken down a 4wd front hub, so if someone has more info, or if I am wrong, speak up...

but you should have an inner and outer bearing. the outer sits on the end of your spindle, the inner sits at the back of the spindle. on the first image, it looks like your inner seal is still on, that will need to come out and be replaced. the inner bearing should come out of that side. the outer bearing should come out of the other side.

once your bearings are out, clean them completely and inspect them for any cracks or flat spots... anything that looks wrong. if the bearings are still good, you can re-pack them and reinstall them.

anyway... like I said, yours is a little different than mine, but should be similar in those basics. if you need more specifics, someone else should have that info.

 

your in trouble
let me search around and find you a parts break down. i can tell your going to need a outter axle shaft, a spindle, and a new wheel hub. bearings races, seals and lockouts.

 

every thing from the brake dust shield out, but just the outer axle shaft,

got the info here.

ty mr.trucknut and nem. so heres where im at. I ripped it apart, bought new bearings+seal, races.
The spindle is the thing on the end of the drive shaft?(2nd right photo) I have heard you can only get spindles from pick-a-part, no one really stocks them?
I'm going to take it tomorow to a family mechanic so he can give me some insight an advice.
What is a lockout?
And just out of curiousity how can u tell i need a new wheel hub?(that the big circle thing that the brakes grip?)

I'd repack them NEM but i think it came a apart and all the bearings got chewed up, so new ones. since its a mess im just kind of confused where the bearings sit. that diagram helps

 

The big circle thing is your break rotor.

 

lockouts are the hub locks, like warn hubs. part of it is in your pictures and it is ruined.

i can tell you need a new hub because the rest or your stuff is jacked. lol

prolly need a new rotor and pads too.
but you can take the rotor in and have it turned (they will tell you if it needs replaced.)

and your right about getting the spindles.

 

and the hub and the rotor are pressed together by the lug bolt studs hammer out the studs and the rotor and hub seperate

 

Exactly what you need, looks like you have a race stuck on the spindle shaft. That's always fun to remove

 

Ouch, she got chewed up a bit!

Yeah trucknut has the parts list covered...

You want to separate the brake rotor from the hub... (punch the lugstuds out)

Get all the parts together that trucknut suggested as well as an SBK-1 kit from the parts store and replace your spindle bearing as well...

Check out jeffsbroncograveyard for the spindle, hub, stub shaft and lock outs...

Then just some bearings and seals and get er back together!
