So I plan to change the passenger front hub/bearing assy this weekend on my 2006. I ordered the Timken pn# HA590086 and that arrived today.

I need to get the backing plate and locking nut probably from the dealer on short notice so if anyone has the pn for either/both of these that would be greatly appreciated. I have not checked the aftermarket stores yet so Autozone or O'reily's pn's would be helpful if anyone has them.

One last thing, is there a 'best' youtube video for changing out the hub/bearing? Any link would be appreciated. I've seen a few but thought you guys would know of the best one out there.

Thanks,

give this a read, the thread has all the info you need for torque specs and sets, I found the axle nut only at my GM parts counter but that was awhile ago, I found this for Dorman at O'Reilly's

Backing plate? They are reusable, unless you are going to upgrade to the new part, if you have not had problems yet go with the old.

Lucky

Rotor shield numbers. Passenger side is 25884778. Drivers side is 25884779. My dealer has them in stock.

The wheel bearing are fairly easy to replace however you are in Michigan and they like to use salt on the roads like here in Ohio.

The bearing on my 08 where corroded/rusted to the spindle and it took a lot of beating and jb blaster to remove them.

If you adding the shields then you discard the spacer plate in between the bearing and the hub
