Dana 60 axle bearings?
Sup fellas,
I've got something at the back of the truck, feels like right rear, bumping, grinding, grating, binding, thats the best I can describe it. Doesn't do it often or for very long, but I can recreate the problem by backing up to the right then move forward to the left. It could be the brakes binding up, But I just went through the rear brakes a couple months back and to be honest this new thing has a heavier, thicker, clunkier sound/feel than binding brakes normally do. I'm thinking axle bearing. Hopefully today I'll have the chance to get in there and have a look. I've never been into a rear end this big. How hard is it to pull the axle and replace the bearing? Any special tools required? Any help would be appreciated. |

Got axle out no problem. Finally got the hub off after fighting with the 2 huge nuts.
I don't see anything wrong with the bearingS (plural). But the seal was leaking, maybe it's just dried out or maybe theres just enough loosness in the bearings to screw up the seal. Either way I'm gonna take them to the parts store and PRAY they have replacements. I love the conversations with myself. |
