How to service and repair the front wheel bearing and wheel hub on F-250 and F-350 on 2007 Ford F-350 Super Duty?

Question

Accepted Answer

A proper front wheel bearing and wheel hub repair process for F-250 and F-350 models starts when positioning the vehicle on a hoist in neutral mode. The brake caliper needs to remain secured to the brake hose so protect it from breakdown then remove two anchor plate bolts to suspend the caliper using mechanic wire. The service process requires removal of the hub assembly grease cap and subsequent removal of the cotter pin followed by wheel hub nut retainer and finally the flat washer and nut before discarding the wheel hub nut. The inspection of wheel spindle and thread integrity leads to necessary cleaning or replacement operations which enables removal of the brake disc and hub assembly and outer wheel bearing assembly. Users must handle the wheel bearing cage with caution when they use a combination of slide hammer and bearing seal remover to extract the inner wheel bearing seal along with the bearing. Install the bearings while avoiding dry spinning with compressed air and thoroughly clean all lubricant from the bearings together with the hub and spindle. Check the condition of bearing and bearing cups after which you must perform a double replacement. The right approach is to use new sets for both bearing components. Put the inner and outer bearing cups inside the hub with a bearing cup driver tool until the 0.38 mm (0.015 inch) feeler gauge shows correct fitment. Use emery cloth to smooth any burrs along with scratches on the spindle as well as the seal bore. First distribute wheel bearing grease throughout the hub space until it reaches the bearing cups level after which apply a bearing packing tool to insert wheel bearing grease into the assemblies. Mount the inner wheel bearing cone and roller component in the cup while inserting the wheel bearing hub seal with a seal replacer tool until it is fully supported and ready for operation. Every component of the hub and brake disc assembly must remain aligned with the wheel spindle before inserting it onto the spindle to avoid damage. Place the outer wheel bearing cone and roller assembly together with the flat washer onto the spindle but maintain the nut free from tightening at this moment. The wheel bearing end play needs adjustment before installing the brake caliper and anchor plate where two bolts require a torque of 225 Nm (166 ft. lbs.).
