    Interference fit required for wheel hub assembly to knuckle?

    Ram 2500 posted a topic in 2nd Generation Dodge Non-Powertrain
    Manufacturer of new hub assemblies for my 1999 Ram 2500 4X with TD says it's okay to have slop between the hub and knuckle since the four bolts will hold the hub in place, no problem. I say baloney, since the bolts should not be subject to any shear load, the purpose of the chamfered faces between the hub and knuckle. Additionally, OEM interference fit caused large problem in getting hub removed from knuckle. Unclear in Shop Manual whether interference fit required. Request advise.
