Axles and front wheel bearings/hubs

[chief153]

I am going to have the axles and wheel bearings/hub replaced on my 1997 LeSabre. I would like some member feedback on replacement parts that are of good quality. I would assume NAPA would have higher quality parts than say Auto Zone or Advance Auto. I don`t mind paying a premium for good parts, it`s far cheaper than replacing it again a couple of years later, found that out with a water pump on my auto.

Napa has lifetime warranty hubs and bearings, the axles are all rebuilt units.

Years ago on my 93 lesabre I replaced the front bearings. I called the local Timken Bearing distributer and bought the assembly for less then $60 per side. If i'm not mistaken the NAPA's were in the $100 range or so.

The hubs and bearings are one piece, you installed the bearings on the hubs, I assume?

I'd go with Napa..
