Re: hub bearing recommendation
You buy the one with the best warranty. They will wear out again. I would get one from a local parts supplier. That way when you wear one out again the return process is VERY easy.
Let me rephrase this you WILL wear one out again! especially if you have larger than stock tires or off-road your truck.

It's the luck of the draw ,I have seen them last 150000 miles and fail at 60000 miles .

Re: hub bearing recommendation
220 ft/lbs for the caliper mounting bolts. and you will need a socket for the axle nut. They are easy to replace.. if you have a LONG pull bar
dealer wanted $690 to replace one hub..i did it for $82 bucks and :30 of my time.
I ordered one a month ago from this guy

Re: hub bearing recommendation
On my 3rd set of hubs, I have 37" tires and they seem to go about every year and a half, i also have 175,000 miles
i have changed them myself each and every time, can do it in about 1 hour per side.

Re: hub bearing recommendation
Luck seems to be a big factor as well as the manufacturing tolerance. I have 101,000 on my H2 and have the original hubs and bearings - still no problems.
