I put a new front pass side bearing on yesterday and in 60 miles it was trashed. I got it from the same place (Performance Peddler) as the drivers side one and that one is fine. I'm going to have to call them tomorrow and see if they will refund me or send me a new one. I also pulled the halfshafts today. That's a good time right there. I love that the CV joints don't fit through the fork at the bottom of the spring so you have to take if off. Oh well, it's been a good learning experience for me.

I called performance Peddler about the bearing and they are sending me a shipping label to send it back and sending me a new bearing. Great customer service!!!

Gotta wonder where it was made, I try and stay away from bearings made in China.

Yea, I said, "I put the bearing on yesterday and in 60 miles it developed a ton of play and was grinding" He said that he was really sorry to hear that and that he would send another one right away! I am very impressed and wanted to let you guys now about it. And Adam, it's made by Wheel Bearings Inc out of Michigan so it's a decent brand. Performance peddler sells them for $131.xx shipped. Not a bad price if you ask me.
