Evening all,

Has anyone got any experience of the front Hub's available from Euro Car Parts?

These ones >>here<<.

I need to replace the N/S/F wheel bearing, and was planning on doing the other side at the same time because it's likely to be in a similar state.

Anyway, I also believe that one of the front hubs may be slightly ovalised due to some odd steering behaviour recently.

My plan was to just do the wheel bearings but after seeing how much the hubs were on ECP, I thought it might be a plan to buy new hubs along with the bearings and replace the whole lot at the same time.

So, back to my original question, has anyone bought hubs from ECP and if you have what did you think of them in terms of quality and fitment?

Sorry for the long post, any help/advice would be greatly appreciated. Smile

if its damaged yes.

check the BJ's first though, and the bolts, more common for those to go.

That's the thing though, I replaced both the ball joints because of the odd behaviour.

It did make it better, but it still behaves a bit strange sometimes which leads me to think it may be something to do with the hub carrier.

Does anyone know where to get the hub carrier from for a reasonable price?

Just had a look on Servicebox and Peugeot want over £200 each! Shock

I know you get the bearing and everything in with that but even so, they must be available separately from somewhere else for a lot less?

Nope, not yet.

Been having a search and phoned a few people, but they only seem to be able to supply the Hub not the Carrier.

If anyone knows where I can get one cheaper, either refurbished or new I would appreciate it. Thumbs up
