Aloha guys. Been a while since my last post. Like anything else, no news(post) is good news, right?
Anyway, I'm trying to find what is a good front bearing (hub). Here is my story.
I can't remember for sure, but I think I got the car back in 2016. Shortly after I got the car, replaced the front wheel bearing with many other stuff. The bearing I got was Raybestos, mileage on the car was somewhere in 61,000. Back in 2018, my car had really bad, like grinding sound and replaced rear wheel bearing. Noise went away somewhat but still there, only not as loud. Mileage at that time was somewhere in 74,000 or so. Been only two years and 13,000 miles on the bearing, I scratched the front bearing out and was looking for the cause of this noise. Long story short, I narrow it down to front wheel bearing and sure enough, when I changed it noise went away and I got a car that's quite. Second bearing (hub) I got is from Timken from Amazon.
Fast forward it to today, which is two years later and another 10,000 miles, noise is back. Just started like week ago. It's not that loud but it's definitely there. So within 4 years of owning this car, this will be my third bearing (hub).
Car in question is 2004 LS V8 if it matter.
Any recommendation?
