I've seen many of the posts here re Explorers eating wheel bearings on a fairly regular and long term basis. . Mine hasn't had any go bad yet, but I do suspect one starting. When it does go, I will replace with a Timken or SKF.
My real question is, why do they go bad? Is this a crappy design from Ford? Are they under spec-ed? Just crappy OEM quality?
It seems this has been an issue for many, many years with the Explorer. Wouldn't you think they'd have come up with some kind of remedy for it by now?
Tnx
