As tile states, Im trying tho source some new hubs for the front of my Vit But so far ive only been able to find hubs for years 2001 Up.. Any one know where to find these?? Really dont want to pay $700 (just for wheel bearings) Would rather replace the whole hub Something like this - http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/TIMKEN-Front ... 3f05129591 But for a 1995 vit Thanks, Sam |

if wheel bearings are gonna cost you $700 you need to look else where. you gonna pay about $70 tops per side pull the hubs apart your self. get a mechanic to press the old out and the new in for maybe $50 and put it all back together. you dont need new hubs. nor will you find them new these days i doubt |

Also, not a hard job for a novice either... For $700 are you intentionally looking to get ripped off? Who quoted that? |

Front hubs from repco around 115 each possibly cheaper., bearings installed and all. Did mine on a xl7 which has abs paid cheaper, because of a mate, but took me around 30min each side to do. Its pretty easy. I saw some sites selling the Hubs as same part from Vitara, Grand Vitara and XL-7, for Vitara just remove the ABS ring. All it is is the lock ring holding it on, but cant say for sure if the GV Hubs will actually fit on a vitara. Instructions: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=36274 |
