Detailed Description
Use the SKF UJ479 when servicing the front axle at wheels on Ram 2500 and Ram 3500 models from 2010 through 2024, including configurations with 2-joint or 3-joint rear shafts and flat-faced or serrated front pin flanges where listed.

Common Repair Uses

Installation Notes and Tips
Confirm the bearing cap diameter, cap style, and axle configuration before ordering. Match the vehicle’s rear shaft and front pin flange setup to the fitment notes for your Ram 2500 or Ram 3500. Clean the yoke bores thoroughly and inspect related driveline components for wear before installation. For best results, compare the removed joint to the UJ479 and verify all dimensions against the application.
