During our weekend camping trip we somehow broke the front right hub. And to me the manifestation was quite strange.

The front left hub would start ticking, akin to a fast ratcheting sound, at speeds over ~18 mph. Back up, the front-end would sound like I was engaging 4x4 in a forward motion and the ticking would stop. Back up again, the ticking would start.

Got it to the dealership yesterday and received the call later in the afternoon. Warranty is a wonderfull thing - they said it shouldn't break doing what the truck was designed to do.

Question: Do hub breaks usually result in a ticking sound in the oppostie hub?
