#22 of 31 Re: Dodge Dakota Wheel Bearings [dustyk] by gbetts Feb 16, 2009 (1:50 pm)
Replying to: dustyk (Dec 29, 2008 8:52 pm) I agree. I recently had problems with extreme overheating of front brake and now bearing is growling. Can it be pressed out of hub and replaced or do I have to shell out for the hub assembly? 99 4x4 V6 XCab 100K miles Replies to this message: dustyk (Feb 22, 2009 11:46 am)

Replying to: gbetts (Feb 16, 2009 1:50 pm) I honestly don't know. I know that the bearing and hub are serviced as an assembly by Chrysler, AutoZone and Advance Auto. I suspect that someone makes a replacement bearing for it, but you'll need a press.   Regards, Dusty
#24 of 31 Wheel Bearing replacement by gbetts Feb 23, 2009 (4:09 pm)
I now know it's a sealed unit. Advanced Auto will, howevever, sell you a gear puller (for the hub) and you simply return it for credit when your done (Nice). The most difficult part of the replacement is cracking the 1.5" retaining nut. Thanks again for you response.

By the way, you can opt for the "Economy" Hub $75.00 or premium for around $150.00. (Sanel Auto Parts). Most places I contacted marked up the "Economy" to around $125.00. Premium up to $190.00. Good going Sanel! Replies to this message: bdoucet (Feb 27, 2009 1:55 pm)

Replying to: gbetts (Feb 23, 2009 4:14 pm) I am having the same problem. Using SKF brg/hub assemblies, I have replaced both sides twice in the last year. Had a 4 wheel alignment done...tech said nothing unordinary. No brake drag. I would think that SKF would be OE supplier or at least a top line replacement...am I missing something? 2003 QC 4X4 3.9L Thanks Brian
#27 of 31 Tail light lens by dodgedriver02 Mar 11, 2009 (2:01 am)
I have a 2002 dodge dakota quad cab. My question is how do i take my tail light lenses off and clean them. For some reason when i bought it there was dirt caked inside the lenses and the tail lights are hard to see. Replies to this message: dustyk (Mar 11, 2009 4:52 pm)

Replying to: dodgedriver02 (Mar 11, 2009 2:01 am) Lower the tailgate and look for two Torx-head screws on the side of the tailgate janb on the box. Remove these screws. Standing at the rear of the vehicle, pull the tail lamp assembly outwards from the body.   Regards, Dusty

Replying to: ra3154 (May 02, 2009 5:04 pm) I'm not aware of PCMs being a general problem on any year Dakota.   What year is the truck?   Regards, Dusty Replies to this message: ra3154 (May 03, 2009 5:08 pm)
