sup guys just have a quick question about replacing front wheel pass side bearing. Has anyone ever gotten one off of ebay?? Im asking because the prices are as low as $15 with free shipping. does it matter what brand I get as long as its new? Is there a quality difference in the prices of other brands vs timken brand?? I have to replace this thing asap but trying to keep it reasonable because I will be removing the hub myself, and the shop charges $40 to press in the bearing. 95 max by the way, without abs. Does it matter if it says with abs or without abs?

 

Make sure u get a damn good bearin..ive used timken and have to replace them every year...due the shops not doing so good...if u have the money take it to nissan and let them unless u trust this shop..i trusted mine but ended up being screwed...but with abs or without im pretty sure its the same part number and everything just make sure u get new seals aswell there about 12 a peace for them....

 

Why not just buy the whole hub assembly off ebay and save the hassle of having to go to a shop to have them press the bearing? The whole assembly can be had for $50 for one to $80 for a pair. Not sure of the quality of any of these, but somewhere for you to start.

That's just the hub u still have to.have it pressed in the hub is pressed into the bearing belive me beed down this road to many times lol

 

Wait, the whole hub assembly does not come with the bearing already pressed in? Any wheel bearing i have changed on other vehicles did not require me to have anything pressed in. Must be a Maxima thing and i guess I stand corrected....Well, carry on then LOL

 

If you have been driving with it bad for a very long time, the hub will have to be replaced or you will keep having to change it as you stated.

 

I bought new bearings and had them pressed in. I wish I had just bought the entire hub with bearing and been done with it.

 

Well ive only had the car for about a month now, and there were alot of loose front end parts. I didnt notice the wheel bearing noise until recently. After having found loose ball joint and loose axle nuts on both sides i started to feel the looseness n the pass wheel then the noise came with it.

 

This caused the bad bearing. Both sides will soon be bad. Better bearings will also last longer. Timken or SKF are generally both good brands.

 

Can you please provide part number for this?

Thanks

i bought the entire hub asy from rock auto. had it in two years without a problem and i didnt need to press anything

 

Really? Did it come with a new wheel bearing also?

 

They used to have it, but I dont see it now.
