I am replacing my front wheel hub tommorow, I ordered the part through advance auto for 140 for hub assy. Now I have a 05 gsr with abs....they said that the abs assy is dealer only!!! No way!! I looked and searched and looked then searched some more....since im inly replacing the hub assy that has the four bolts and studs not the knuckle or anything ....shouldn't the hub I ordered still work even though it says no abs....because there is.literally just four bolt holes and the bearing....input is appreciated.

 

Hub/bearing is not part of the ABS.

Change it.

ABS sensor is in the knuckle and the ring gear is on the axle itself.

 

Thanks.....tired of that roaring sound!

 

Takes no time at all to replace. Good luck! And don't listen to idiots at Advance. They know nothing about EVO's. Go to the dealer to get your important parts. Might cost a bit more but I don't like taking chances with my baby lol

 

I hear that! But a hub to me is a every day part....seems all Mitsubishi wheel bearings last around 70-95000 miles

 

Well my front left just started to go at 85k...looks like I'll be changing them too

 

Unless you work at Advance and own an Evo...

Doesn't happen that often, I'm sure, but it's just a something to do while
I finish up school.

 

Dealer near me wants 163.00 for rears and 142.00 for fronts... I want to change mine but that is a bit pricey...

 

You should see the dealer list on hubs for my Land Rover. They want 600 for one front.....

 

That's not bad. Remember, quality comes with a price. Also we aren't driving Kia's.

 

I ended up getting OEM teplacment through advance for 134.83 out the door....and paid big o tires 75 installation ( my Impact drill went out ) and no more roar.....once I get these blizzacks off my car, ill be back to a nice semi quiet ride lol

 

Just a heads up guys, I got my front hub assy for 108 bucks at oemmitsubishiparts.com, I forget the shipping cost but it wasnt bad and it only took a couple days for delivery to my door.

 

They told me I need front brake pads.....if anyone has any own or street pads they have swapped out w/ life left on them...ill pick them up for a few bucks...I don't have 175 to replace them all now...

 

Amen brother, I worked there too when I was going to school.
I got to agree, part stores almost hire ANYONE these days, BUT
Not all guys that work at part stores are idiots. You got to shop around, and when you find some knowledgeable workers, go to them for your stuff.

Next time, if you need to get a part from the dealer, ask advance to call the dealer. Advance can put it on their account so you can get a discount and then pay cash when you get to the dealer. Not all advanced auto's will do this but its always worth to ask.

 

Hey man I think it might be better to do all 4 wheel bearings at once. Othere wise everyfew weeks youre going to have to do one. Once one starts to go that the early warning that the rest of them will shortly be on their way out as well.
