Rear Hub and Bearing - Description

DESCRIPTION










The wheel bearing used on the front of this vehicle is a unit type combined hub and bearing assembly. The hub and bearing is made up of the wheel mounting hub (flange) (3) and the wheel bearing. The hub has five wheel mounting studs (2) installed in it. The hub is pressed into the bearing. It is held together on the vehicle by the axle shaft and hub nut.

The hub and bearing assembly is mounted to the knuckle and is retained by four mounting bolts accessible from the back of the knuckle.

The bearing requires no periodic maintenance. The hub and bearing is serviced as an assembly if the hub or bearing is determined to be defective. The wheel mounting studs may be replaced separately if necessary.
