About Front Wheel Bearings on my 06

[GOPAPA]

2 years ago I had a front wheel bearing go out and it cost me $450.. Then this last August my other front wheel bearing went out and it cost me $345.

Needless to say I wasnt happy as I have low miles on my truck and this last one went out at 74000 miles..

I was in farming country in eastern Oregon in a city called Pendleton at a Les Swabs getting it replaced for this last one and the Mechanic told that it is not a Chevy Problem any more than a Dodge Ford Problem ..It's a new design where the bearing is in the middle rather than on both outer edges like they used to be.. All the trucks have this same design,,. and 3/4 ton and 1 tons go out even faster..

Just thought I would share this because I was about to trade my truck off until I learned it really wouldnt help as the new ones have the same bearing and is still being changed out just as fast ..
