Product Details
This zinc-plated wheel bearing spindle bolt (Part Number: KR1571) is a must-have for your vehicle. It fits various Chevy and GMC models from 1999 to 2018, including 1500HD/2500/2500HD/3500 & 3500HD trucks, 2500 2WD/4WD SUVs, Hummer H2 and H2 SUTs, and 1500 6 Lug Trucks. These bolts attach the wheel bearing to the spindle securely. They're zinc-plated to prevent oxidization and rust, which are common problems with regular bolts. When installing, they require 133 Ft Lbs of torque. We highly recommend replacing them when changing your wheel bearing for easy access. They're sold individually, with 4 per side on your truck (8 in total). Kryptonite offers a no-fine-print lifetime warranty for the original purchaser, covering manufacturer defects, premature wear, or breakage. Note that the warranty excludes Heim Joints, and you must purchase from an authorized dealer and complete warranty registration within 90 days of purchase.
Using these wheel bearing spindle bolts is straightforward. First, make sure your vehicle is safely parked and the wheels are secure. When you're changing the wheel bearing, simply replace the old bolts with these new zinc-plated ones. Remember, they need 133 Ft Lbs of torque when you're installing them, so use a proper torque wrench to ensure they're tightened correctly. As for maintenance, since they're zinc-plated, they're quite resistant to rust and oxidization. But it's still a good idea to check them regularly, especially after driving in harsh conditions like muddy or salty roads. If you notice any signs of wear or damage, it's best to replace them right away. Also, keep in mind that they're sold individually, and there are 4 per side on your truck. And don't forget to register your warranty within 90 days of purchase from an authorized dealer to enjoy the lifetime warranty, though it doesn't cover Heim Joints.
