Problems after replacing hub assembly

[SassyiaGal]

I’m sorry it’s taken me so long to get back on, had a child going the hospital and it wasn’t a good prognosis but she pulled through like the soldier she is.
You are all awesome. I took all of your advice and watched several videos, used my sons hydraulic jack, watched about 6 videos and eventually we got the hub done. Had a heck of a time getting the caliper bolts loose first but it’s done. Truck is driving fine now except I really do need ti-rods and sway bar bushings & I’ve ordered Bosch stuff. That good?
But guess what? It wasn’t the problem. The dumb arses had put it in auto 4x4 & I have different size tires in the front than the back, 1” bigger. Put in 2 high and it’s fine besides when I hit a bump and look like I’m drunk driving lol.
Thank you all so much. I felt like I could do it thanks to your help and advice and we’re got it done. Not by myself but I still got to be a a mess and fixed it.

She needs a bath and I’ll post pics of her. I’m thinking she’s a keeper. I need to get a window regulator next though because it’s getting warm. Than put on an a/c compressor belt because when we did the hub assembly found it all twisted up broken.

If you're hearing new noises and the car pulls to one side or screeches at a certain speed right after getting the hub assembly replaced, it could be a problem with how the new part was installed. Maybe the hub assembly wasn't put in right, or something else got messed up during the installation.

Thanks for reporting back, good job. Are you going to be doing the tie rods yourself then? Make sure you mark them with a paint line to the tie rod. And count how many times you unscrew until it comes off and record that for each side for putting the new ones on to get it close. I made some home made toe plates out of plywood that works pretty darn good.
