I think so as well. That makes sense, you most likely have larger brakes on that truck vs the 150, 99% sure. Which would spec a larger booster. Crap, wish I would of looked into this sooner. Not too late though, kids going to be driving the truck, going to do it up right. Thanks!

Thanks again for the support, yea, shedded some light on this today ashamed to say lol. Everything else is up to par in the system and ten sum, shouldn't be doing that when hitting the skidders hard. Never thought to investigate the booster. Of course it hit me once realizing what brake assist really is....jeezzz..

Looks like I have a bad hub. I noticed when turning right that the hum i get from my tires disappears. I mean they go silent. I jacked up the front wheels one at a time and even though I have no side to side play I am getting a low roar.
I'm back and forth between moog and Timken assemblies. What do yall use?

P.S. There was no manual wiggle in the '99 hubs, but they (or one) were/was bad enough to make the ABS act up even before the noise got bad.

I put Timkens on my '99, and have them saved in a list on Amazon for the '03, as I'm starting to notice a little noise in right curves.

JP, as long as the bearings say USA, Japan, or Spain on them - I wouldn't have a problem using them. I've found that the Timken, SKF, and National bearings often intermingle their parts among themselves. You might be able to find something by just going to NAPA and asking to see what's in the box.

Well it looks like I cant wait for shipping. The front left bearing made an audible pop and now has an intermittent squeal as well as the low pitch growl. Looks like I might have to go pick up an assembly and take it to a shop. There is no play yet but I dont know if I should take the chance it will fail in the 60 or so more miles I need my truck for today. The local Napa has Opt. 1 and Option 2 and Advance has Option 3. If I order them online and pick up in store I can take a 20% discount off of any off them so I would like to do that.
What would yall go with? Im sorry for clogging up the thread like this guys.
