The terrible huge wobbling noise, vibration, I thought recently was the driver side cv axle. So today I got ready to take out my axle and i found out that wasnt the problem. The bearing and hub part of my spindle was easily moved back and forth. So i went to Pepboys to see if i can get that replace and they said no, they told me I need to replace my hub, they don't sell our hub assembly either so they told me to buy it from the dealer. They also said that everytime you replace a bearing you should also replace the hub too. Is that true? and What cause my hub to be like that?


*sigh...so many problems.

you dont need to replace the hub each time, theyre just going for the extra sale.

the front bearings have to be pressed out and pressed on, if you break it all down and take it to a shop they shouldnt charge you more than $50 for the pair (do both sides!) to be pressed off and pressed on.

i was messing around with it just awhile ago. I can take the hub and bearing in and outlike nothing. it was stay in the spindle. So does that mean the hub is damage? I'll take pix tomorrow.

just get one from someone parting out their car, it would be a lot easier.

the reason why they say replace the hub also is because when the bearing breaks it ussually wears out the hub.
