Wheel Hub interchangeability

[RustyRamFan]

Will any 5-lug first gen wheel hub fit on any first gen trucks?

Is the only option for wheel hubs to buy them used, in junkyards?

I have a 1991 W150 Dodge ram, with a spun bearing.

have you tried rockauto.com? they have a pretty good variety of stuff for old cars. other than that, yes, salvage yard.

can't you just replace the race? usually new bearings come with a brand new race. hammer out the old one and install new one

WELL IF THE BEARING got hot enough to spin .. It most likely stuck to the race & Has spun the race inside his hub. Causing the hub to no longer hold the race tight enough.
..............
... SO HOW RED IS YOUR NECK.
iF YOUR A COUNTRY BOY. & NEED YOUR TRUCK & CAN'T FIND A NEW hub. THEN..
... get a center punch sharpe pointed punch & START PINGING THE RACE LOCATION.
...... meaning ..........
... place the punch on the surface of the hun where the race should rest . Place the center punch against it & hold said punch with Vise grips . & Knock HELL OUT OF IT . PLACING big dibbit in it ... Move punch tip about a 1/4 inch & place another DIBBIT IN THE RACE SEAT BASE .
... then Place dibbits all the way around the race base top & bottom .
...........................
..... Now your new race will be tough to drive in place ..
But your a big boy . get after it.
... & Keep an EYE OPEN FOR A GOOD HUB.
your old one may last longer than you expect.
..........
I told you this was RED NECK. REPAIRED . bUT IT'LL GET YOU OFF THE MOUNTAIN.

81-93 should be the same 5-lug 4x4 front bearing hub.
