My brother in law told me to bring it over and he’s going to help me work on it. that that is it and what was making me scratch my head , seal leaking terribly is about the only reason you wear out a bearing on a GM 1500 1999-2006 because if it is covered in 90 weight it is really hard to wear them out. the next question is if you leaked out all that oil , how bad is the entire axel and is it worth a junk yard axle rather than a set of wheel bearings , find one still full of oil without leaking seals I just sold my 2004 gm 1500 for parts , but there are a lot more out there with rusted bodies and fine axel America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

It just started making noise,,, so maybe there’s a chance everything is still decent. Stand by your principles, Stand by your guns, and victory complete and permanent is sure at last.
