WTF!!! brand new bearing only 2mo's and this?

[D_roc]

so the loud noice of a train was a faulty bearing, only 2mo's since i replaced it but with he old hub but look the hub is intact fine but the bearing is f'd wtf happen?

can any one please tell me what went wrong here, i replaced it with a new hub and a bearing so far every thing is fine

[tHe iLleSt RiCe]

there is practically NO grease on that bearing. What brand bearing was it?

[D_roc]

it was from "foregin auto parts" but there was all the grease was leaked when i took it apart

Im sorry. I cant see from the pictures. But do you have the seal's on there? I cant think of anything else. That bearing looks prehistoric!

[D_roc]

yea it was sealed when i bought it and got it pressed professionally, but for some reason it broke off, the hub is old but no the bearing

[DevonD]

I replaced my bearing a few months back as well. I didnt replace the hub either and it has given me no problems. The only thing I can think if would be that whoever pressed it on somehow got dirt in it. I pressed mine on myself and it appart pretty easily during that process if your not carefull.

My guess is it has to do with it being pressed?

[lightsout]

i always tell those who need to replace a bearing to get a new hub also...but in this case it may have been who pressed it in....that SUCKS man

[allensteiner]

was the bearing new or reman'd? maybe the seals were bad?
