 I also have gone through 3 left rear wheel bearings and one rear wheel within 20,000 miles while I was using a CT. I am not blaming it on the CT and cannot offer a reason why.
  Maybe my wheel was damaged possibly due to a slipped bearing prior to my ownership? I really will never know, if it was caused by CT my guess is that the Tennessee Wild Bunch would have reported similiar problems long before this Florida Flatlander?  I'm not a fat ass, I'm a tiny little man 2funny

Those single row bearings belong up front and that's questionable given the size tire it is.  Shocked

Double row angular bearings belong on the rear wheel with a CT.  2funny

My 98 has 65,000 on it. 31,000 of those are mine....all but a few
hundred of that on a car-tar. Replaced the rear wheel bearing this
summer. Precautionary.
