When it comes to replacing worn-out wheel bearings or hubs, car owners face a dilemma: should they replace just the wheel bearing or the entire hub assembly? This decision depends on several factors, including the severity of the damage, the type of vehicle, and the owner's budget.
Factor | Considerations |
---|---|
Severity of Damage | If the wheel bearing is severely damaged, it may be necessary to replace the entire hub assembly. |
Type of Vehicle | Some vehicles have hub assemblies that are designed to be replaced as a unit, while others allow for individual wheel bearing replacement. |
Budget | Replacing the entire hub assembly is typically more expensive than replacing just the wheel bearing. |
