Should I Replace The Wheel Hub Or Put Bearings? by onlinediva: 10:29pm On Dec 21, 2022 |
When you start hearing a rumbling sound or noise coming from any of your car's wheels when on speed, note that it is most likely that your car's wheel hub has gotten bad. You will have to replace the wheel hub or put in bearings to fix the issue. But because it is hard getting quality wheel hubs even at reasonable prices in Nigeria, most people prefer to buy the so-called foreign use, a.k.a tokunbo, instead of going for a new one or they put bearings in the faulty one since the bearings generally break. Buying a tokunbo wheel hub could be a waste of money because one cannot forecast how long it will last plus, some sellers put new bearings into spoilt OEM wheel hubs and package them as tokunbo. Put bearing is not even the issue but the quality of the bearings used is the prominent bone of contention; before you know it, the bearings have worn out after driving the car for a while. What do you think is the best option to fix a bad wheel hub issue? SOURCE: https://www.autosandcartalk.com/threads/should-i-replace-the-wheel-hub-or-put-bearings.697 |

onlinediva:I was faced with the same issue sometime ago They advised me to put Japanese bearing instead of complete Tokunbo hub But the so called Japanese bearing didn't last for 3 months. 1 Like |

I was in this situation January this year, I was advised by my machanist to replace with Tokubo hub which I did. but unfortunately, less than a month the noise came back I took my old hub to fix new bearing into it since then it has been working well. |

You could change the bearings but they wont last. Best to just buy brand new hubs or direct belgium instead of wasting money to change bearings |

Get a brand new wheel hub.... I know they are lot of knock off parts flooding the market for Lexus, Toyota & Honda, Always look for a trusted spare part dealer to get original OEM parts One of my car (Saturn vue) hardly has fake parts maybe probably people are not driving much of the brand in Nigeria, trust me i have peace of mind buying my parts because i know i get the original, Sometimes i order from eBay when its not available in Nigeria |

fashrola: This is very good. The advantage you have is that you are driving a car which is not common. |
