Front wheel bearing

[john12566]

have a bad front wheel bearing on my 2020 Ram 2500 Cummins. Do i replace the whole hub assembly or can just the bearing be replaced? And why is the Moog hub assembly so cheap ($150) vs Mopar at $650? I'm not expert on suspension so sorry for all the questions. John

The whole assembly..... it's pretty easy to do. I think it took me ~ 1.5 hrs per side at most.

I replaced my last ones with precision hubs and never had another issue with them. They were ~400 each if I recall correctly. I like Moog in general, but I wouldn't cheap out on hub assemblies and if it's that cheap, there's a reason. Buy once, cry once.

If ever I have to change mine, I change them both. Every time I've done one, the other side has failed within a few thousand miles. Just my experience.

^^^^ THIS!!!!!

Use quality parts, don't cheap out, and just do both at the same time and be done with it altogether
