    Hey guys, new member here. Last Fall I was desperate to replace a bad wheel hub assembly. And funds and time were extremely limited. So I had a guy do it for me along with some rear work too. He did the driver side and did my rear brakes as well as replaced a caliper. I know… Should’ve replaced the hubs in pairs. Now my passenger side wheel has worn quicker and is wearing faster than the drivers side tire. The difference is visible. I’ll be buying new tires soon, as well as new front pads, but I’m guess I need to go ahead and do that wheel hub in the passenger side too? Alignment was fine but of course now the uneven wear is causing issues with pulling to the right. So I’m looking at New tires, pass. side wheel hub assembly and front pads. Correct? Or am I missing something? BF Goodrich KO2’s on 20” stock rims.

    You can verify the hub is bad by jacking the truck up and wiggling the tire side to side and up and down. There's a couple different things that could be causing the wear, you're correct if the other bearings went bad that it's probably the same deal on this side, but it's worth double checking. Worn ball joints can cause vertical play, and a worn tie rod can cause side to side play so best to verify the worn component. And I'd get an alignment after you find and fix the issue.

    Thanks guys. I will investigate this thoroughly. I’m a full time RVer and this truck tows my house. So I have most of the tools needed, but have been watching vids to figure the rest of the tools.
