The short version
- This page now covers the 2011 to 2019 Ram 2500, the full generation. That includes the 2019 Ram 2500 wheel bearing year that used to fall past the old cutoff. Moog 515162 and WE61904 front hubs sit alongside a rear axle set built from NB28682 and NBA38.
- 2011 through 2013 use handed front hubs split by drive type, plus a full rear axle bearing set.
- 2014 through 2018 collapse the front to one hub across all drivetrains, documented twice, once on each catalog.
- 2019 has a documented rear inner bearing and outer set. No front is documented that year.
The 2011 to 2019 Ram 2500 runs nine model years on this page, stretched from the old 2018 cutoff. A 2019 Ram 2500 wheel bearing search lands in the last year, rear documented, front not. Two catalogs cover this truck, and both numbers stay on the table wherever they list the same position.
What the 2011 to 2019 Ram 2500 wheel bearing job needs
The front is a bolt on hub, handed by drive type through 2013. From 2014 on it becomes a single part across all drivetrains. The rear is a solid axle: a bearing, a race, and a seal, not a hub assembly.
The 2019 Ram 2500 wheel bearing rear runs on NB28682 and NBA38. The front hub has no documented listing for 2019 on either catalog.

This page covers the 2011 to 2019 Ram 2500: 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019. Other years live on the main Ram 2500 wheel bearing page.
The rear on this truck is a solid axle, not a bolt on hub. The rear listings are a bearing, a race, and a seal, sold as a set rather than one assembly. That is axle bearing territory, explained on axle bearing versus wheel bearing, and nothing like the front job.
The front runs the other way. Two catalogs list the same 2014 to 2018 position on 515162 and WE61904.
Match the number against the old part rather than treating them as alternatives. The front listing stops entirely in 2019 while the rear keeps going.
Year by year
2011 through 2013 use handed front hubs split by drive type, 4WD and 2WD each on their own number, plus the full rear axle set.
2014 through 2018 collapse the front to one hub across all drivetrains, listed twice, once by each catalog as 515162 and WE61904.
2019 has a documented rear inner bearing on NB28682 and outer set on NBA38, with no documented front hub. The 2019 Ram 2500 wheel bearing job on the front end gets matched off the old part or the VIN.
A solid axle rear, a bolt on front
The front hub bolts in as a complete assembly on every year of this page. The rear axle bearing set is a different kind of job entirely. More on that split lives on the axle bearing versus wheel bearing page.
Some rear components, like the inner seal, may call for a repack rather than a straight swap. Repacking wheel bearings covers that process.
Diagnosing a Ram 2500 wheel bearing
- Confirm the drive type on an early truck. 2011 through 2013 fronts split by 4WD and 2WD, each on its own number.
- Identify front or rear before ordering. The front is a bolt on hub, the rear is a bearing and race set on a solid axle.
- Check which rear component is worn. Inner bearing, inner race, inner seal, and outer set are separate listings on this truck.
- Confirm drivetrain type. Drive type and which hub applies matters most on a 2011 to 2013 front.
- Match the old part on a 2019 front. No catalog documents that position, so the part already on the truck settles it.
Common questions
What wheel bearing does a 2019 Ram 2500 use?
The 2019 Ram 2500 wheel bearing rear uses NB28682 inner and NBA38 outer. The front hub is not documented for 2019 in either catalog, so match the old part or the VIN.
What wheel bearing does a 2015 Ram 2500 use?
A 2015 Ram 2500 front uses 515162 or WE61904 across all drivetrains, both documented that year. The rear runs the same axle bearing set that covers most of this generation.
Is the rear a hub assembly like the front?
No. The rear rides on a solid axle: a bearing, a race, and a seal, not one hub. The front is the bolt on assembly on this truck.
Why does the front have two numbers for 2014 to 2018?
515162 and WE61904 are parallel listings from two catalogs for the same front hub position. Match the number the old part already carries rather than treating them as different parts.
Is the 2003 to 2010 Ram 2500 covered on this page?
No. That generation has its own listing on the 2003 to 2010 Ram 2500 page. Numbers here start with 2011.
