front wheel bearings/hubs

[ex-ctr]

anyone know a suplier of the above at a decent cost

i wouldn't bother buying second hand unless you know for sure what vehicle they've come off and what mileage they've covered. i wasted £120 on 2nd hand hubs and they were as bad as the ones i took off. i resorted to paying £680 for two brand new ones from Nissan. it was money well spent as i needed my car on the road asap and i wasted my money at a breakers in Birmingham as i couldn't find any closer to home.

i have only came across abs or non abs fitment, i will post on here if they fit, i think they will

[green_rs13]

its the stub axles. if you imagine its like a bolt, some have perfectly straight shanks and some have like a grove machined into the end before the threaded section.

ignorance is bliss so yours will fit straight on. lol.

i know a fair bit about cars, been working on them for at least 35 years, never seen different stub axles fitted on an s14-14a or 15, and these hubs feel straight on without a problem and only cost £225 posted and £28 tax with parcel force fee and thats for a pair

the hubs are the same

I have fitted non abs hubs onto abs knuckles etc.

ONCE stumbled across a very random knuckle, like you say... didnt have the notches in the knuckle spline (much like driftworks'geo knuckles ) but I still used the hubs from them, onto a normal knuckle, with just the use of the spacer washer with the flat in that sit on the notches of the spline

Forgot to check back on this thread!

Glad they fit Were they OEM ones when they turned up? I still can't work out why they are so cheap?!
Before you put them on did you do the replace the grease mod?

100% nissan and no to the replace the grease mod

That is such an epic price for OEM
I was looking at some thread in the states, some guy tested the OEM grease and found it just really isn't up to scratch.
I don't know if it was shit or not but I replaced mine with Redline CV2 grease... only cost £20 something
