Well...compared to the brake job this was a breeze. :)

Unlike the brake job didn't have to take the pads off the caliper. (Thank you YouTube.) because in my head I thought I had to.

Just take out the two 18mm bolts on the bracket that holds the caliper and the pads, the take out the four 18mm bolts that's attaches the hub to the spindle. By the way there is no spindle. Just a hole that bearing fits in. I think taking the tires off took longer than the hub replacement. Lol.

And now the rumble is gone, truck rides smooth as butter. :biggrin:

Here are some pix.

At 185k miles and the unknown condition of mine, I should probably change mine too.
