Wheel Bearing - My recent experience

[pceh]

My truck, for over the past year had made quite alot of noise from the front. I assumed it was the brakes, and waited for the pads to get down to 20% before changing rotors and pads. This past weekend I changed the pads and rotors (the rotors were heavily pitted). Some of the noise went away but now I could really hear the culprit - left front wheel bearing. You could really hear it when turning right. I took it to the dealer to have it changed - noise gone away. Rides as quiet as a church mouse. I bought the right wheel bearing to do the change myself, but need to borrow a few tools to finish the job.

While I was changing the brakes, I noticed that my bump stops are practically disintegrated. I have searched through the forum on the the topic and could not find what is recommended for a stock setup. I went to order from the dealership, but the want $35/bump stop. Anyone out there have a good replacement recommmendation that won't cost $150 to replace? THanks.

Get the full size stops. I think they will work well on the stock set-up and offer a little more firmness up front.
If that is not what you want. A set of the energy suspension stops will do the trick.
