Id like to say that this is the first time being on the site, and Hello!


When I turn right with my 2005 1500, I hear a grinding noise coming from the left wheel. I jacked it up, and I turned the wheel, rolled it, tried to wiggle it. No signs of damage. But it still makes the worst sound when im truning right. Help please!

I had a similar noise in my 97 1500 and it was the wheel bearing. When they pulled the hub off, the little balls from the bearing went everywhere. It just exploded. They told me I was lucky the wheel never fell off. I had to get a new hub.

What did it run you? Labor and parts

I would say the hub as well, same thing happened in my Dakota many years ago. The hubs can easily be replaced yourself, you'd just need a 36mm socket for the CVs, everything else is hand tools.
