Features:
When you're swapping out wheel bearings on your 2011–2025 Silverado or Sierra HD, it’s easy to overlook the spindle bolts—but that’s a mistake you don’t want to make. The Kryptonite Wheel Bearing Spindle Bolt is a small upgrade that plays a big role in keeping your front end tight and secure. These bolts are responsible for locking the wheel bearing to the spindle, and with a required torque of 133 ft-lbs, they’re under serious stress. Reusing the old ones, especially if they’re worn or corroded, just isn’t worth the risk. Kryptonite took things a step further by zinc-plating these bolts to fight off rust and oxidation—something that’s far too common with factory hardware, especially if you live where salt and moisture are part of the daily grind. That extra layer of protection not only helps them last longer, but also makes them easier to remove if you’re tearing things back down in the future. No more dealing with seized threads or questionable bolt heads.
These are sold individually, but it’s worth noting that your truck uses four per side. So if you’re doing a full wheel bearing replacement, you’ll want to grab a complete set to get the job done right. And if you’ve got a truck with aluminum steering knuckles, don’t forget to reuse the factory steel washers during installation—those are key to ensuring the torque readings stay accurate.

Application Note: Vehicles with aluminum steering knuckles come equipped with hardened steel washers that must be reinstalled or the tightening measurement may be inaccurate.
