Home › Vehicles › Ford › Ford F-350 › 2005-2010 Ford F-350 Super Duty Wheel Bearing Part Numbers
The short version
- 2006 F350 wheel bearing numbers split by wheel configuration. Single rear wheel trucks use 515081, dual rear wheel trucks use 515082.
- 515081 covers every single rear wheel Super Duty for the whole 2005-2010 run with no changes.
- Dual rear wheel trucks split again starting in 2008. Standard axle stays on 515082, extended axle trucks move to 515116.
- Nothing on the truck marks which axle it has. Match the old hub before ordering a 2008-2010 dual rear wheel front bearing.
Ford split the 2005-2010 Super Duty front hub two different ways before the run was over. First by how many rear wheels the truck carries, and after 2008 by how long the front axle is.

Year by year
2005 through 2007: the 2006 F350 wheel bearing split is single rear wheel or dual rear wheel. 515081 covers single rear wheel trucks, 515082 covers dual rear wheel trucks.
2008 through 2010: single rear wheel trucks stay on 515081. Dual rear wheel trucks add the axle length question, 515082 for standard axle or 515116 for extended axle.
Where the SRW and DRW split leads
Single rear wheel trucks never split at all here, one number, 515081, for the full 2005-2010 span. Dual rear wheel trucks carry the more complicated chart, with the extended axle exception arriving partway through in 2008.
The next generation, the 2011-2016 F-350, drops the extended axle wrinkle entirely. It goes back to one simple SRW or DRW split.
Rear bearings on this truck sit inside the axle housing rather than a hub. That distinction is covered generally at axle bearing versus wheel bearing.
Diagnosing a Ford F-350 wheel bearing
- Confirm single or dual rear wheel first. That’s the whole story behind the 2006 F350 wheel bearing split.
- Check the axle length on 2008-2010 dual rear wheel trucks. Nothing on the badge shows it. Match the old hub, 515082 or 515116, before ordering.
- Listen for a rotating hum. A worn hub growls or hums and gets louder as the truck speeds up. See the wheel bearing check guide.
- Rule out tire wear first. Uneven wear on a heavy work truck can sound a lot like a bad bearing. That mix up is covered at tire noise or wheel bearing.
- Note whether the noise changes in turns. A bearing that gets louder in one direction points to a specific corner, explained at this cornering noise guide.
Common questions
What wheel bearing does a 2006 F350 use?
A 2006 F350 with single rear wheels uses 515081. A 2006 F350 with dual rear wheels uses 515082.
What wheel bearing does a 2009 F350 use?
A 2009 single rear wheel F350 still uses 515081. A 2009 dual rear wheel F350 uses 515082 on a standard axle or 515116 on an extended axle. Matching the old part is the only reliable way to tell which.
How do I know if my F-350 has an extended axle?
Nothing on the truck states it directly. Match the number on the old hub rather than guessing from the trim or the badge.
Is the F-350 rear wheel bearing the same as the front?
No. The rear uses axle bearings inside the housing, not a front style hub, a different kind of job entirely.
Did the extended axle split carry into the next F-350 generation?
No. The following generation goes back to one simple single or dual rear wheel split with no extended axle exception.
