It was mentioned that it's nice to have easy availability of the 1 Ton front wheel bearing a part stores. If those bearings are holding up well. And there aren't a lot of 1 Ton 4X4 trucks sold to start with. They more then likely will have to have it brought in over night. If they sell 1 a week. They'll carry 1. If the failure rate is higher. They'll stock 2. 3 a week. That's high demand/failure rate. That got me thinking about how many are carried on hand. So I called 2 of the AutoZone's, and 2 of the O'Rielly's here in town. The AutoZone stores both stock 2 at each location all the time. The O'Rielly both stock 2 at each location all the time. All the stores said the those bearing are among there better selling wheel bearings. And those sells back up demand. Personally That's not a comforting story for a Lifetime bearing. Call your local stores. Towns will vary I think. Bob Dunahugh
