Keep your wheels and axle turning smoothly with the SKF wheel bearing BR50, which is also cataloged as an axle differential bearing. It is a direct-fit replacement for many vehicles, among them the 1975-1986 Ford F-150, the 1994-2000 Dodge Ram 1500 and the 1975-2003 Ford F-350. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list of applications and for engine details.
Depending on the application, BR50 is cataloged for the front, rear, front outer, front inner or rear outer position. The part is listed under both names, Wheel Bearing and Axle Differential Bearing.
- Heat-treated high-carbon steel: Made from heat-treated high-carbon steel for strength.
- Smooth, quiet running: SKF tapered roller bearing races use logarithmic roller raceway profiles with an ultra-smooth surface finish, designed for smooth and quiet operation.
- Precision-matched components: Each bearing set contains components matched to one another, designed for performance and long service life.
- Wide application range: Built to meet or exceed the requirements of most applications. SKF is a brand that engineers, technicians and mechanics have relied on for more than 100 years.
A bearing in this position lets rotating components turn with low friction while carrying the load placed on them. Signs that a bearing may need replacing include humming, growling or grinding that changes with vehicle speed, roughness when the part turns, and play or looseness. If a worn bearing is the cause, BR50 replaces it. Diagnose the source of the noise before ordering.
