GMC Sierra 3500 Wheel Bearing Parts Questions & Experts Answers
Q: How to service and repair the front wheel bearing on GMC Sierra 3500?
A: The process to service or repair front wheel bearings starts by hoisting your vehicle. First remove the tire together with the wheel then take off the rotor. Detach the Wheel Speed Sensor and brake hose mounting bracket bolt from the Steering Knuckle before removing the wheel drive shaft nut retaining cover. A brand-new nut needs to be used when you install the wheel drive shaft. The procedure requires removal of the wheel drive shaft assembly retaining nut and its accompanying washer. Start by using the axle remover (J 45859) to free the wheel drive shaft from the Wheel Hub and bearing. Remove first the 15-series bearing mounting bolts before taking out the 25/35 series mounting bolts. The vehicle receives a Wheel Hub separation followed by bearing extraction alongside splash shield extraction and an o-ring seal removal from the Steering Knuckle bore that operates through the 25/35 series. Test the o-ring seal by checking for nicks, cuts and dryness, brittleness and compression set. Replace the o-ring if damage occurs. Suspension professionals need to remove all contaminants and corrosion from the Steering Knuckle bore and the hub and bearing assembly before they lubricate the knuckle bore with Wheel Bearing grease or another equivalent product. Tighten the Wheel Speed Sensor mounting bolt to the Wheel Hub and bearing assembly until it reaches 18 nm (13 ft. Lbs.). Next install the o-ring to the Steering Knuckle, 25/35 series. After completing the Wheel Hub and bearing and splash shield installation on the vehicle, proceed to install the Wheel Hub and bearing and splash shield on the vehicle, 15 series. Both 15 series and 25/35 series Wheel Hub and bearing mounting bolts require a torque setting of 180 nm (133 ft. Lbs.) to fasten the Wheel Hub to the knuckle. Use nut along with washer to secure the wheel drive shaft assembly to Wheel Hub and bearing. Torque the nut to 240 nm (177 ft. Lbs.) before installing the Wheel Speed Sensor and brake hose mounting bracket bolt to Steering Knuckle then tighten brake hose clip bolt to 12 nm (106 inch lbs.). Finish setup by adding the rotor then installing tire and wheel and finally lowering the vehicle down.
