HELP!! Grinding noise coming from front end.

Ditto, I paid $202 at Ford for the hub, and with locktite the bolt should never loosen. The torque is a lot, like 150 lbs.ft., about as tight as you can get it.
Good luck,
Don

Hey guys. Just wanted let u know I got my hub all done today. It was actually a pretty easy job to do. I have no noise now either. I just greased the spindle before I put the hub back on and used lock tight on the bolts and everything was done. Thanks for all the help. I love this board...

Todd, I am pleased for you that that solved the problem.

Thanks. Sounds a lot better now. Other side is not bad but might replace it just to be sure over my spring break.

Glad it worked out for you as well, Todd. It is ashamed I too bought a new hub and found out all it need was just small grease around the splines. I guessed something we all learned from our mistake. Anyone want to buy a good used "hub"??? lol
