Thanks a lot for the wheel bearing tips. I already had that grinding noise, bearing explosion, wheel + axle shaft & axle housing separation experience on my left rear 1 week after I bought the truck! Since it's not making any noise, I won't worry about it now.

We just got back in Inuvik from Tuk! It was just amazing driving in the middle of Mackenzie River & along the shoreline of Beauford Sea for ~200km, all this on pure ice at 80-90km/hr on 2wd!!! (seriously, any car w/ good tires can do just fine!)
