The hub too is reused unless it's all bashed up. Knuckles are reused and really expensive (and don't come with everything installed). Your only option would be to get an entire knuckle with bearing and hub installed and that isn't really available. I already want to replace both the wheel hub/bearing on each side and I'm thinking I can do this with the wheel hub assembly and avoid having the bearings pressed altogether.is this correct? Or does the assembly kit simply come with the bearing separately included, thus needing to be pressed in before installation into the knuckle?Īny info on where to find the assembly and whether or not I need to have the bearings pressed once I receive the assembly would be much appreciated! The main problem I'm having is finding a wheel hub assembly for the FRONT with NO ABS. I haven't had any luck finding one? I'm looking to replace both wheel bearings and hubs on the front end, hence my search for the wheel hub assembly.Īlso, am I correct in thinking the wheel hub assembly will come with a new wheel bearing already pressed into the wheel hub? That's half the battle here and part of the reason why purchasing the whole assembly is so appealing. That being said, I'm looking for a wheel hub assembly for the FRONT of my 2003 P5 which has NO ABS. I've been lurking for a while now.I love the site and I appreciate all of the knowledge and help I've gained from this site already! I’m guessing having a sore butt isn’t your idea of a good time, so this should be a sign that something isn’t right.I'm new here and this is my first post. Or your entire car might vibrate like you’re driving on a dirt road. You might feel the vibration from the steering wheel, which is a weird sensation. You’ll feel it in the form of a vibration. If your front upper ball joint is calling out sick, the suspension of your car will be compromised. The second is a squeaking noise, similar to an old door in a horror movie, which happens when a busted ball joint is lacking in lubrication. The first is a knocking, clanking, or rattling noise, which happens when a failing ball joint is rattling around in the socket. If your front upper ball joint is beginning to wear out, they can make two different noises. Hopefully you know by now that foreign noises from your car are not a good thing. Excessive or uneven wear and tear should be taken seriously, at least if you value having tires on your car.
It’s a good idea to give your tires a visual inspection every now and again. So even if you don’t notice the pulling (because it can be subtle, or, more likely, you can be inattentive), you might notice uneven wear and tear on your tires. If your failing front upper ball joints are causing your car to pull to the left or the right, the tires will wear unevenly. If your car is pulling to one direction or another, do you think the tires might wear a little unevenly? So, listen to your intuition when it tells you that something is wrong.
This is a bit of a disconcerting feeling, when your car is trying to go in one direction when you’re not asking it to. The result will usually be your car pulling to the left or the right. That will mess up the alignment, and you may notice that your car isn’t steering quite the way that you’ve been asking it to. Symptoms of a failing Front Upper Ball JointĪs your ball joints begin to die, they can become loose in the socket.
