Gotta give Axiom credit for one thing. Their salesman has a pretty good sense of humor.

So Brad, these aren't no-name bearings being resold? They're a legitimate new brand that actually seem to last?
I'll ask who makes them and see what I get. Being that one of the owners is a close friend I may be able to help shed some light but I will likely have to not explicitly state it.

They are not a rebranded bearing from what I can tell and they have held up great with the exposure I have (2 vehicles, roughly 150-170k miles) and they've been rock solid.

I'm always transparent so I don't want anyone to think I am taking money or shilling a product, my opinion is based on my personal experiences only not what I've read etc.

Think I'm loosing another wheel bearing, same side... Make semi aggressive right turn and I have noise coming from the DS front🤦🏻‍♂️
Well I was right and wrong, wheel bearing is going out, it's that PS, not the DS, which is original to the truck when I got it. Which means I'm buying something off the shelf as I don't have a working backup vehicle right now🤦🏻‍♂️

Looking around at prices, I was shocked how much hubs are now. $300+ is ridiculous for something that cost $120 a few years ago.

dmaxstore.com has their house branded front hubs up to 2019 for$140 and $160.

Now the Kryptonite ones, bend over and get ready b/c $285-$330. They do carry a lifetime warranty though.

Damn missed most of these posts as I’ve been busy. Dm me your address I’ll send those arp valve cover bolts you wanted as a bday gift.

My local Napa gave me a lifetime warranty on their SKF hubs, not the fleet ones tho.

Well radiator is leaking.... But not coolant.. lower trans fitting is, thought gravity and vibration worked it loose.. checked it over the weekend and everything is tight re-adjusted the hose n fitting.. still leaking...

Did get some Cooper AT3 XLTs 315/70/17 in couple weeks ago, got them mounted..

Still got some decent tread left on the 305/70/17 I pulled off my suburban.
Probably swap them out this weekend.
Back to white truck black rims
