The short version

  • A 2006 Ford F250 wheel bearing question starts with the axle. Single rear wheel 4×4 trucks take 515081. Dual rear wheel 4×4 trucks take 515082 through 2009.
  • 2WD trucks never went to a bolt on hub across this whole span. They stayed serviceable with inner cone and cup LM102949-LM102910.
  • The full floating rear axle carries seal 370247A as documented axle bearing hardware. It is axle bearing work, not a hub swap.
  • A 2010 dual rear wheel truck falls outside the catalogs entirely. That one year means matching the number the old part carries.

Six model years of Ford F250 pickups split into three separate bearing stories. This page covers 2005 through 2010 Super Duty F250 trucks only, not the earlier or later generations. Configuration decides the part more than the year on the title does for most of this span.

Ford F250 wheel bearing numbers by configuration

515081 answers the 2006 Ford F250 wheel bearing question for single rear wheel 4×4 trucks. It holds through 2010.

Dual rear wheel 4×4 trucks use 515082 through 2009 only. A 2010 dual rear wheel truck has no documented row.

2WD trucks stayed serviceable the whole time. The setup uses inner cone and cup LM102949-LM102910, seal 4160, and outer race 15101-15245.

This page covers the 2005-2010 Ford F250: 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010. Other years live on the main Ford F250 wheel bearing page.

Trap

Dual rear wheel trucks stop appearing in the catalogs after 2009. A 2010 dual rear wheel F250 means matching the number the old part carries.

2WD trucks on this generation never took a hub assembly. They stayed serviceable tapered for the full 2005 to 2010 span.

Year by year

2005 through 2009 covers all three front configurations cleanly. A 2006 Ford F250 wheel bearing is 515081 on 4×4 trucks with single rear wheels. Dual rear wheel 4×4 trucks use 515082 instead.

2WD trucks stay on the serviceable tapered set the whole time.

2010 keeps 515081 for single rear wheel 4×4 trucks and keeps the 2WD serviceable setup documented as before.

A 2010 dual rear wheel truck is the one case the catalogs do not cover. The fix is matching the number the old part carries.

Configuration decides more than the calendar

This generation sits between the earlier Super Duty and the 2011-2016 F250. None of the three pages share a front hub number. Axle type and rear wheel count matter more than the model year sticker on this truck.

A 2WD F250 and a dual rear wheel 4×4 F250 built the same week need entirely different parts. There is no single 2006 Ford F250 wheel bearing answer that covers both.

The full floating rear axle is the same story on both ends of this span. It uses seal 370247A, axle bearing work rather than a hub swap.

Diagnosing a Ford F250 wheel bearing

  1. Listen for direction. A hum that grows with speed and shifts pitch in a turn points to the bearing, not the tire. See wheel bearing noise in a turn for the pattern.
  2. Rule out the tires first. Uneven wear or a separating belt can sound similar. Compare against tire noise or wheel bearing symptoms.
  3. Check for play. Jack up the wheel and rock it at twelve and six. See how to check a wheel bearing for the full procedure.
  4. Watch the ABS light. A failing front hub with a sensor ring can trip the ABS light before it gets loud.
  5. Confirm the configuration. Single or dual rear wheels, 2WD or 4×4, and axle type all decide which number applies. Confirm all three before ordering.

Common questions

What wheel bearing does a 2006 Ford F250 use?

A 2006 Ford F250 wheel bearing is 515081 on 4×4 trucks with single rear wheels. Dual rear wheel 4×4 trucks use 515082 instead. Rear wheel count decides which number applies once 4×4 is confirmed.

What wheel bearing does a 2010 Ford F250 use?

A 2010 F250 with 4×4 and single rear wheels uses 515081, same as earlier years. A 2010 dual rear wheel truck has no documented row. That means matching the number the old part carries, or running the VIN.

Does a 2WD F250 need a hub assembly?

No. 2WD trucks in this span stayed serviceable. The setup uses inner cone and cup LM102949-LM102910, packed and adjusted, not swapped as a bolt on unit.

What is the rear axle bearing on a 2005 to 2010 F250?

The full floating rear axle carries seal 370247A as documented axle bearing hardware. This is axle bearing territory, not a hub swap, and it carries across the whole span.

Why does a 2010 dual rear wheel F250 need special handling?

The catalogs held for this truck stop documenting dual rear wheel trucks after 2009. A 2010 dual rear wheel F250 means matching the number the old part carries, not guessing.

About this page

Wheel Bearing Editorial Team The Wheel Bearing Editorial Team researches, builds and edits wheelbearing.net. Every part number on the site is transcribed from manufacturer and distributor catalogs (Moog, Timken, SKF, National, BCA/NTN) rather than generated, and every vehicle page is checked against the catalog rows before it goes live. When two catalogs disagree, the page shows both readings and tells you to match the old part or the VIN. More about how this site is built.
