Shop Replacement Wheel Hub Assemblies

The hub assembly on your vehicle is designed to carry the weight of the vehicle and allow each wheel to spin. Hub assemblies include the hub and lug studs that attach the wheel to the car, as well as the bearing that allows it to spin freely with minimal friction or resistance. In some cases, the hub assembly on your vehicle may also include speed sensors that send information to the engine computer, anti-lock brake system (ABS) module, and more. These sensors are often critical to the safe operation of your vehicle, and if they are damaged, the ABS warning light may illuminate and the entire hub assembly may need to be replaced. Over time, the hub bearing may wear out, the lug studs may suffer damage, or other problems may arise that require hub assembly replacement. Damaged hub bearings can cause a roaring or clicking sound at the wheel end or steering wheel vibrations, which may also lead to wobbling or looseness at the wheel that could accelerate tire or suspension component wear and make driving safely more challenging. A wheel hub assembly holds your wheels in place and keeps them turning, so a wheel bearing failure can quickly become a dangerous problem and should be addressed promptly. O'Reilly Auto Parts carries hub assemblies or wheel bearings for most vehicles to help make your repair and keep you on the road safely.
