Default Front wheel bearing hub assembly

Will the front wheel bearing and hub assembly from a 2000 Dodge Ram 1500 four-wheel drive fit on my 96 Dodge Ram 1500 4 wheel drive?

New ones aren't that expensive, just buy a new one.

While the front hub isn't the worst repair I've even done on these trucks, they are a bit of a stinker. Do you REALLY want to put a used part in place of something that critical to handling? It might last 100K or fail after a week. Just spring for a new one.

While it may very well be, he never said it was used. Yes or no was the answer sought.

Consider, why would you buy a part for a different vehicle. Even if it had never been installed, once it's sold, it's used.
