Please Help!

I got a new wheel hub assembly, and 4 new studs to attach it to the steering knuckle. If I put the studs in the Wheel Hub Assembly, it won't match up with the steering knuckle, it is real close but wont go in. I can't put the studs in from the back side, because I have no way to screw them in. I really need my truck back together any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have replaced both of em on my 03 and took em both off on my old 01 and i never had any trouble getting the holes to line up. The new ones on my 03 were even 2 different hubs and they still slid right in. Are you sure you have the right bearing assy?

I am positive on that it looks Identical to the one I have off. That was the first thing I checked before I posted. But they are to the T a perfect match.

Figured it out! Don't buy the cheaper part! For and extra hundred dollars the part actually fits!

Yes,

I ended up getting the more expensive one, the parts looked identical but the cheaper one was just made sh!$$y so there you have it. I just drove the truck about 10 miles, no more ABS light on, and no more noises so I think it is fixed. Next pay day I will probably replace the passenger side one, now that I know how to do it!

Good going man! I bought the cheaper ones and so far they are doing well, but time will tell. Glad you figured it out.
