Wheel Hub/Bearing Tech? - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Prez1967 · 04-27-2021

I have my front end apart and figured the best way to deep clean my front spindles from ball joint grease eruptions would be to take the front hubs off.

My car has close to 100K and while the bearings feel solid, I cant help but wonder if new hubs "while Im in there" wouldnt be worth while.

Any suggestions?

Im of the mindset that if I can upgrade to better quality parts than stock since Im already in there, I may as well.

Saw some Timken units in the ZIP catalog and some really high dollar "DSE" units.

Looking for quality pieces that will offer years of trouble free (summer/spring) driving and plenty of spirited back road drives.
