New wheel hubs do not have splines??

[Plaf713]

Well I need everything for the front brakes, rotors pads calipers and wheel bearings. So I get everything off and knock the wheel studs out, go to put them in the rotor and wheel bearing and notice there is no splines on the bearing. I still knocked them in and they seem pretty tight but with there be an issue with them? Anyone else have this issue?

It's a 1994 k2500 8600lb 8 lug 4x4 6.5

Thanks

Are you talking about where the axle goes through, or where the studs go in? If where the axle goes through, you have to have the splines for the axle to drive the wheel. If you're talking about where the studs go in, those splines are from the studs being pressed in. They are an interference fit, and cut the grooves when they go in to hold them tight to keep them from spinning during wheel lug removal and tightening.

Oh ok, I thought the splines where there already. Makes sense now thank you
