Rear Wheel Hub

[bnight]

Good Morning bnight -
After installing the new hub and making sure the rear IRS was aligned properly, I didn't have any more issues. If your issue is only with the cruise control on maybe it is a sensor or something related to cruise control? Did the dealer pick up any codes? Sorry for your trouble, hope the dealer is able to fix with the parts you are replacing.

I have the annoying whine, no codes or errors and a kick during descends with cruise control on. My IRS could be miss aligned but Don't know who in my poor country could align it properly are you running steeda IRS alignment kit ?

Apologies for the delayed response. I use the BMR rear cradle centering sleeves. I’d be happy to chat with you more about the install.

Thanks Steeda is selling similar part and is easier for me to source in europe. I never thought about my rear subframe moving but this could be the case.

Steeda’s sleeves are very similar and will work the same as the BMR part. Good luck with the project!!

I replaced my wheel bearings with Moog units when both of mine failed. Rear wheel bearing failures are so common on these cars, I figured it was worth the "risk" to try an aftermarket part and see if it's any better.

The blue spacer ring between the half shaft and the wheel bearing has been updated by Ford, the post above shows the most recent version. I strongly recommend you replace these when a wheel bearing fails. If you don't you're likely to get a clicking or creaking noise in the hub when you creep forward or back like in the garage or in a parking space. It's most profound when you go from one direction to another like backing up and then creeping forward. I chased this noise for weeks and it ended up being those spacer rings. I replaced them and my problem has been fixed for a while now.

What part number did you use for the spacer rings? I used new ones that I thought were the updated design when I replaced my rear hubs last and pretty quickly had the noise back.

Here is the most recent washer and lock nut part numbers and what they look like.
