Hot front left wheel


Recommended Posts

Hey guys. Ive got a 2005 2500 6.0. A little back story, I had the brakes, rotors, calipers replaced about 5k miles ago and replaced the front left wheel bearing about 1k miles ago. Last week the I started hearing squealing from the front left wheel and the wheel was getting much hotter than the rest of the wheels. The caliper was rubbing so I replaced the caliper and flex line.  Im still getting a lot of heat from the left front wheel. When I touch the caliper and the bracket those are not hot.... The wheel is the only thing that is getting very hot. Could this be the wheel bearing? What else should I be looking at?

You never know, the new bearing could be bad. I don’t know if yours is a 4x4, and I’ve never had one apart to see how the front axle attaches. Maybe something got torqued too tight too.
