Having a wheel hub replaced at your local reputable shop is going to run about $265-$347 to replace a wheel bearing, according to RepairPal. However, you can save a little money by doing it yourself, and using high-quality wheel hubs from GSP Latin America. These wheel hubs are some of the best hubs you can buy as they are manufactured for longevity and easy installation.

Badwheelhubsymptoms

When a wheel hub starts to fail, it can make a variety of different noises you can sometimes feel in your steering wheel or pedals as well. Since the wheel hub bearings are constantly turning while you are driving, vibrations and noises will be present only while driving. You can expect one or more of the following symptoms when dealing with a bad wheel hub:

Vulcanization Process - All Hub Assemblies go through a vacuum vulcanization process to enhance the structural integrity of the seal and rubber components.

It is possible to drive with a bad wheel hub and many vehicles on the road currently have a failing wheel hub. While you can drive with a failing wheel hub, it is not recommended to do so for a long period of time. Over time, the wheel hub can separate or completely seize, causing your wheel to be unable to move. This can be a dangerous situation when driving, so if you are experiencing any of the symptoms above, have your vehicle inspected as soon as possible.

GSP offers some of the highest quality wheel hubs in the industry. GSP offers both wheel hub and knuckle hub assemblies.

Premium Materials - To ensure a smooth surface, free from defects, burrs, and cracks, all bearing housings are manufactured with polyamides for added impact toughness and age resistance.

The wheel hub assembly on your vehicle is responsible for keeping your wheel attached to your vehicle and allowing the wheel to turn smoothly and freely. The wheel hub is mounted between the drive axle and brake drums/disks. It contains metal bearings for smoother rotation. The studs that your brake rotors/drums and wheel attach to are located on the wheel hub which is bolted to the steering knuckle or axle. In ABS-equipped vehicles, the ABS sensor is usually located on the wheel hub.
