Funny story..well it wasn't when I noticed. Apparently, I was shipped the wrong hub (non-ABS) so my truck has been on a jack stand for several days now. I just now got my right hub in and getting ready to go out and put it on. Only question I have now is do I need to apply grease to the axel spline or not? Looking at it, it doesn't seem that there really was any on there before or very little.

thanks,

Kevin

Put some ant-sieze compound on there bud.
It'll help if you need to remove it again.

Thanks...I did do that since I read that somewhere else. It's all done..took it for a spin and no grinding or knocking when I turn..Yay!. Only thing is my torque wrench only goes to 150pds so I'm gonna run my a mechanic somewhere tomorrow and make sure that axel nut is torqued to 185.
