As mentioned about stripping the 3/4"? Bolt, it's quite undersized for this job.
The math worked to about 35,000# to remove and 25,000# to install.
3/4" hardened bolt it's good for about 21,000.
I drilled mine out to 1" to bump that up to 62,000#.

Thanks for that info Andrew. I'm not certain yet if I have bad bearing, but I've developed a strange intermittent vibration that seems to be coming form the left front. I used a vibration sensor app and at 75 mph I get a 38 to 40 hertz vibration. If I do have one and have to change it I'll take your advice on the larger bolt.
