• Timken SP550102 wheel bearing and hub assembly for driven front axle applications
• 33-spline design with 5 wheel studs and 3 flange bolt holes
• Low runout construction helps reduce noise and vibration
• Premium seals use reinforced and contamination-resistant features to support sealing performance
• Precision bearing profiles and enhanced surface finishes help increase load capacity and bearing life
• ABS sensor is 100% tested for wheel speed monitoring

Detailed Description

Timken SP550102 is engineered as a direct-fit front hub assembly for the 2000-2001 Dodge Ram 1500. Dimensional details include a 3.057 in. wheel pilot diameter, 3.085 in. brake pilot diameter, 3.910 in. hub pilot diameter, 2.230 in. flange offset, 7.205 in. flange diameter, and a 5.500 in. bolt circle diameter. These specifications support proper hub location and wheel mounting on the intended driven front position.

Timken uses OE-developed testing to control the design, materials, and manufacturing process of its hub bearing assemblies. The result is a hub assembly built with precision internal geometry, uniform bearing profiles, and surface finishes that support load carrying capacity and fuel efficiency. The integrated ABS sensor is tested to monitor wheel speed for anti-lock braking system operation. This part cross-references SKF BR930305 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Front wheel bearing noise on a Dodge Ram 1500
• Wheel vibration or looseness at the hub
• ABS wheel speed signal faults related to the hub assembly
• Uneven braking feel caused by excessive hub runout
• Wear at the front driven hub mounting point

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify front axle fitment, spline count, bolt circle diameter, and pilot dimensions before installation. Clean the mounting surface thoroughly and inspect the knuckle, axle interface, and brake components for wear or damage before installing the new hub assembly. Confirm ABS connector routing and sensor alignment during assembly to avoid signal issues after service.

Quality Assurance

Timken manufactures this hub assembly using OE-developed test procedures and controlled material and process standards. Premium sealing features and tested ABS sensing support consistent performance in the intended application.
