Default Wheel bearing upgrade

Hello all I’ve got a 2018 F-150 Black ops and it’s already had the drivers wheel bearing replaced at 25k miles. However I think it’s bad again, currently running 325/60/R20 BFG AT, too much tire for stock bearings? Or is something else wrong? Any ideas would be great. Thanks

The tires weight to much for the wheel bearings to handle, I work at a dealer and have replaced over 10 wheel bearings with these giant tires but only 2 or 3 that are stock tire sizes. No idea about upgraded aftermarket hubs.

thanks Scott I’ve found that Moog makes one that’s all so far. Whether they are better remains to be seen. Calling Tuscany, who makes black ops, tomorrow to see what’s up

Best of luck with Tuscany, in my experience they are horrid about communication. Not sure what they will tell you since they dont bother to upgrade the wheel bearings in the first place.
