My front driver side wheel bearing went bad and want to know should I go back to ford to get the hub or aftermarket? It's 2003 f150 fx4 4 wheel abs

That's whats great about the unit bearings so easy to change. 30-45min start to finish

Good deal. Anybody know torque specs for the hub can't find it anywhere

Thanks. Last question sorry for them all lol. Should I just do the bad one or both?

Mine wasn't hard to do. The caliper bolts came off pretty easy, but the three main hub assembly bolts were a PITA. Two hours of soaking in PB blaster and forcing the wrench using a 2-ton floor jack broke them loose.

Total 4 hours, but I was taking my time cleaning everything as I went and removing rust/road grime. Shield was almost gone, so I just tore it off and bent the edges back as the screws were seized... oh well.
