when installing a new one piece front wheel bearing in a 2001 f-150 4x4 it sits sloppy in the steering knuckle should this be a tight fit?

Tight-Roger That! Did you run the previous till it wallered out the the housing?...Hope Not! Maybe the Parts House Saleman was receiving his 75th text message from Jim-Bob about visiting Jersey Shore for Spring Break....All it did was vibrate in his pocket (you were totally unaware, since you heard nothing!) BINGO-HIS MIND WAS ELSEWHERE AND HE GAVE YOU THE WRONG PART!.......SUCH A SAD, EVERYDAY OCCURRENCE THESE DAYS!--I hope thats all it is!--THE MEDIC
