2006 Dodge Cummins 2500 front axle problems?
I have a 2006 Dodge Cummins Diesle 2500 the first thing that went at 42 000 km was the front left and right axle u joints, i replaced these with napa parts. Then at 60 000 km the left wheel bearing made a clicking noise. We removed both left and right bearings/ hubs and they both do not turn very smooth, The u joint on the short left axle is worn out again and needs to be replaced again.
The truck was rebuilt after it hit the ditch by the previous owner but was inspected and rebult by a dodge dealership. It only needed minimal repair to the front end (ball joint and wheel alignment). What could be causing the front end to be giving me so much trouble?
i had one in the shop about a month ago that was giving the same problems your having now,it might be that some of the parts used in it wasn't as good as they should have been,because normally those last a lot longer than that,and you said it had been hit before and this could have something to do with it even though they said it was OK that doesn't mean it is,the one i was working on only had about 80 thousand miles on it and it had never been wrecked or anything they just wore out,depending on how much you drive it and use the 4 wheel drive that could be a big part of it,you have to remember the original joints you couldn't grease and the replacement ones you can,so you should grease them really often because they turn all the time,regardless of where its in 4 wheel drive or not,and they will wear out pretty often if not greased often,do this turn the axles when you replace them and see if they have any up or down movement in them that may help determine if the housing has a slight warp in it and that will cause that too happen ,good luck with it,
