Re: 01-06 Chevy Front Wheel Bearing Assemblies

I have a 03 Z71 and it needed front brake pads in January this year. So I thought I'd do a quick rotor/pad job it was probably 30 deg outside. Well ended up doing the drivers side in about 25 minutes went over to the passenger side and noticed not only was the wheel bearing shot but my seal on the front differential was throwing fluid. So my quick little brake job ended up costing me a lot. Had to pull the half shaft and the RH housing for the differential. I was thinking that the worn hub bearing caused the seal to go bad. Or caused the seal to leak fluid.
