Mike, I lost the bearings in my '95, @ 66000 miles. Ran me $560 bucks
for the replacement. Rears were okay, but he bearings were toast. The
shop said that they probably were bad from the start, and finally gave
out.
BTW-- I still have your video. I got it converted, but my HD died
afterwards. I need your address (via email) and I will ship that tape
back to you. Sorry it's taken so long.
Good luck with your truck!
