Replacing a GM 10 bolt bearing
The bearing and seal sit inside the axle housing and carry the wheel load on the axle shaft. When they fail, the usual signs are a growl or hum that changes with road speed, heat at the hub, or grease that has leaked onto the brake. Catching the problem early can prevent damage to the axle shaft and brake parts.
Before installation, clean the housing and check the bearing bore and seal surface for scoring. Pressing the bearing in square protects the race and roller path, so use a press or the correct installer tool. Repack the bearing with the grease the axle requires and fit the seal with the lip facing the bearing, as the service manual shows.
- Check housing bore for scoring
- Press bearing in squarely
- Use the grease the axle requires
- Inspect the axle shaft for wear
