So....JoycesJag was right!!
Saw the write-up you did about the front hub on your '05 & after changing my back bearings, still had humming from the front left. On a whim, picked up a front hub from NAPA and figured it might work, same part # for all years....., well, should have listened!! After beating the other one out! lol. I saw the difference in the new SKF hub vs. the old OEM part, the back part of the hub assembly was twice as as long! WON'T FIT!! Hits the spline bolt! So I promptly got on the phone to Nalley Jag and ordered the OEM replacement. I told them I was a member of this forum and it saved me 50 bucks, $270 vs. $320. They were very nice to deal with & I would recommend them. Were shipping it out today, so I'll have it in a couple of days. Sometimes my head is kinda hard and I have to do it my way (that's what my wife says anyway), but at least, thanks to JoycesJag I knew going in there might be a problem. Seems odd though that the manufacturers of these parts don't know that this is a problem and either engineer it differently or exclude the years that won't fit....oh well! Thanks JoycesJag!
