Front Hubs

[Don Pertz]

I know that some of the members have replaced front hubs.

Just like to know what brands you have used and if you have any problems with them



I possibly have one going, will know tomorrow.

Advance Auto, Hovis Auto, both have them in stock. 147.00 and 171.00 Dealer has to order and is 216.00



Thanks

I replaced the front hubs on Theresa's Explorer. I got mine from Car Parts Warehouse for $53.00 (Fifty Three dollars and zero cents)...and this is not a typo.



My brother got the same brand, some Chinese made brand I never heard of, a couple years ago at the same place and has since put 50,000 miles on them without any issues.



Unfurtunatly, Timken brand ones are made in China too, so there is not much incentive to pay extra for "good name brand" parts since odds are, the Timken brand ones are made by the same people that make the ones I got.

Thanks Caymen. There must be some difference because the cheapest I can find is the NPT Bearings at Advance. 147.00



Ebay for 139. but when I need it Im going to need it now.

I got mine at NAPA for 112.00 each. They also come with a 1 yr. warranty

I got mine at advance for 120ish per side i believe and they had the same warranty and the expensive ones although the difference is that they came from china. so far so good i suppose. They are relatively easy to change if you have tools.
