No matter how it's put. The 1 ton has some issues that the original GM design doesn't have. An original, well maintained system will just handle better. The original didn't have a bearing problems. It's was the bore that the bearing went into. Jim K at Applied, and Dave Lenzi have on hand the parts to fix that issue. For good. And then that original bearing can be greased without ever removing that bearing again. Just put a grease gun to it every 75,000, to 100,000 miles. I like the idea with the 1 ton. That instead of greasing the bearing. You just change it out. It's not a forever bearing. I just don't care for some of the issues that come with the 1 ton. It doesn't fallow SAE standards. This is what owns need to understand. Then pick what you think is best for your GMC. Bob Dunahugh

Rob. Thanks for this new thread. Helps in getting better understanding to viewers here. The OEM drawing does a good job to show the centerline of the rim to the centerline of the bearing. Bob Dunahugh
