Valuable Info On Changing Your Rear Hub

My rear bearing is going out so instead of replacing it I decided to just change the whole hub. Well there are a ton of hubs on ebay that claim to include the ABS stator ring and the wheel studs and even show it like that in the picture. Well I called at least 6 internt dealers including Orielly! They all claimed to sell a rear hub complete with ABS stator and the studs and their pictures reflect that. Once you call them to confirm though the story changes, and they don't include anything! What is they point of buying a $35 hub when you gotta spend $10 on studs and $100 on changing the abs ring.

Well all my hunting and calling paid off. The Raybestos 712203 Professional Grade Wheel Bearing and Hub Assembly actually comes with the ABS stator ring and the studs included.. I found mine on Amazon for only $57.00 shipped!

Just thought I would put this here as I could not find any info about this issue on the org..

You couldn't have found this deal at a better time. My rear driverside hub is starting to die. Mechanic told me he wanted $385 dollars to fix it. I just ordered the Raybestos 712203Professional Grade hub and plan on installing this weekend.

Thanks for sharing!
