RCX 6” lift question about wheel bearings

[wwofford]

First time post! I Am going to be installing the RCX 6” in next few weeks. I’ve got a 2019 1500 classic ,as you know it’s basically a 2018 4th gen carry-over labeled classic. Question is for someone whose done this is on a newer truck will the wheel bearing /hub come out easily ? Should I just plan on installing new hub in knuckles? Everything I’ve read is they are pain to get out , but all were on older trucks. She’s barely broken in at 18,000 miles. Considering buying set and if I need them I’ve got them.

Holy crap you have 18,000 miles already on a 2019 truck?

I would think with it still being “new” that they would come out easier.

Yeah started pulling front apart this afternoon, wheel bearings after removal of the 3 bolts fell right out! Have 1 bolt holding in diff will drop in ,orning then continue on. 5 of the 7 bolts on the diff are a mother.

Sorry have not been around for a while . I gave my Ram to my daughter and retired. Wheel bearing should come out easily on your rig. Mine had a few years on them and was not hard at all .
