- In this video I will show you how to replace the wheel bearing assembly on a 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty.
Cost for parts - via Rock Auto was ~$140 per bearing
Time to complete - I timed myself doing the second one and was able to do it in just over 1 hr but I would tell you to expect it to take 2 to 2.5 hrs.

Can’t thank you enough for this video. I went through hell trying to find the right pliers.
Thanks for the video, I'm pretty sure I've got one going out on mine and you hit on all the questions I had.
Glad to help
Thanks for the link on the tool!
Thank you video was perfect doing my 250 this up coming weekend
Thank you very much. all your instructions were clear, and the way you made the video was efficient.
The snap ring is kinda a pain, but I like the Idea of not having a massive nut you have to toruq to some absurd value. keeps it more simple for a diyer
and you dont have to worry about it ever coming off (especially when ppl just impact it on). interesting design by ford
Very helpful video, will save this video I'm replacing my hub bearings some point this month or next month after I get my ball joints done, but I would use an air wrench and a impact wrench myself to get rear nuts off
In case of just the bearing itself to be the failure point, you can replace it separately from the hub assembly, remove another snap ring and press it out. Replacement part is 6009DDU or 60092RS
Thank you very much for your help bro 👍🏼👍🏼
Nice video. Which brand from rock auto did you get and how has it held up since it looks like had been over 2 years ago? Thanks.
I believe I would have replaced that rotor. Looks like the first one Ford ever made.
The little piece of spring is the remains of a seal
You sound like Ashton Kutcher lol great vid
Haha, I had someone on another video say that as well. Guess I have a new party trick to master
I hear a grid when I'm going around a corner but only when I'm turning right and my wheel isn't loose like your demonstration. Still a hub you think?
Grinding is usually a sign of a bad wheel bearing, yes. Make sure you check both sides and of course you can take it to a tire shop like a Goodyear store and they will sometimes do a diagnostic look for a minimal fee. Could also be a U joint if you have a 4x4.
What did happen with the shims behind the snap ring ???
Cool so where did you get your wheel bearing from and what did it cost
Rockauto.com and ~$50
50 bucks for the whole. Wheel bearing assembly?
Did the dashboard ABS lights, skid light flash during the malfunction of the wheel bearing?
Did the chime sound go off too?
What ton jack and jack stands are you using
Not sure. 3 ton jack, but the stands aren't marked so my guess is 2 ton stands. The truck is ~3.5 tons at curb weight so heavy duty stands would be a safer option.
Dude those rotors are far from being ok
Great video though 👌 thanks for the tips
You should be using Metric on everything except the 13/16 lug nuts lol
The screws for the locking hubs are actually T27.
Helpful but you skipped over re-installing the c clip, ive been fighting it for about an hour now and I haven't gotten either clip installed.
Buy the tool, you will be able to complete the job in seconds.
I have the tool and I still been fighting with it
I agree, the clip was one of the more aggravating parts of the project. I was able to get it on when I realized I had some play in the axle. I put a bar in the I joint and pulled it forward which gave more room to get the clip on. Hope that helps!
Do you have to replace the hub or can you just replace the bearings?
Yes I believe you can replace just the bearing, but you will need a bearing press.
@Richard Jones just saw your question. WA515081
I'm not sure that front wheel wasn't the problem...that look your front axle knukle vacumm shaft seal is bad... I know because I have the same problem. Because all the shit do you show on the video come from the that seal not from the wheel bearing... like I said I'm not sure but look like same problem I had.
Tip. Get some square steel toe boots, Texas style.
You can take just the two bolts out of the caliper bracket without removing the caliper. Save yourself some time
Great tip!
Everytime i do that i have to remove the caliper from the brakcet anyway when im reinstalling 🤷♂️. Shortcuts are usually longcuts
Holy smokes, rust central. I feel like boosting my tetanus shot. Haha. Great video. Very helpful. Thanks
Dem rotors
I bought some 30 dollar pliers and I still haven't managed to get the child out!
GET A TRI-POD!
Feel free to send me one. Lol
i still dont understand why everyone replaces the entire hub the bearings are cake to pull out and pop in a new one. its such a waste.
BREAKS ARE METRIC
I always measure my "breaks" in imperial units... BUT THANK YOU FOR YOUR KNOWLEDGE NUGGET!
