Wheel Bearing 2021

I can't find an updated recommendation for a front wheel hub and bearing assembly. All the current post are old and recommend a wheel bearing from someone that no longer sells them. Any recommendations will be appreciated, Thank you

 

I got the entire assembly from O’reilly’s. Are they one they no longer has them?

 

@05Taco4x4 is the hub guy. Buy from him with confidence.

 

I’ve bought from Oreillys for my 4Runner and they didn’t last longer than 30k miles. I put some from Toyota and they’ve been on for 92k miles now.

 

I will message him, thank you!

 

Explains that, I traded it in after about 20k miles so didn’t notice longevity issue., thanks for the heads up

 

Timken or Koyo will be your best bet. Usually the Timken assemblies use Koyo bearings which are Toyota OEM supplier.

I’m replacing the steering knuckle next weekend after a caliper bolt fubared the hole. Any idea of what seals I’ll need to install in the new one? I hear outer and inner, but I don’t know which one is which. I’m hoping to take the current bearing off and use it on the new knuckle. Strange, but I was able to break the trapped bolts free, but after a couple turns they all stopped loosening. Any idea why? Thanks

 

You really only need to replace one seal, it presses onto the steering knuckle. I'd probably replace the o-ring too it's pretty cheap. If the bolts stopped turning you may have hit the housing and will have to pull the bearing out of the knuckle more to be able to further loosen the hub assembly.

This was true for 1st Gen, changed during 2nd Gen

 

interesting, I just bought a Timken rear wheel bearing recently and it was a koyo. What bearings does Timken use for the front then for 2nd gens?

 

I’m not referring to Timken being Koyo, I’m saying Toyota hasn’t used Koyo up front for many years now, Toyota is using NSK thus my transition to using NSK. Koyo were being used in the rear for entirety of 2nd Gen as far as I know, haven’t seen a 3rd Gen rear bearing yet so can’t speak on those.

 

Can I ask how much per side. Rock auto has BECK/ARNLEY (which ive heard good things about) Hub assembly for 102 each

 

I also went with Timkens on my old 09, they had lasted 70k+ when I sold the truck.

 

I put 2 of these on my front last year, so far so good. Made 2 trips to Wisconsin, 80 plus mph . No issues yet. But time will tell. I did replace the dust seals.
