30 ounce Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 I tried to replace my front wheel bearings last weekend and when I got the bearing races into the seated position they were LOOSE! They were tight all the way to the final position then they flopped around. I have never seen a wheel hub "wear out" but I suppose mine is toast...has anyone else had this happen? I ordered the TTT Aluminum replacement hubs. I'm a little worried about their strength for track use but Gabe assured me they are up to the task.

RebekahsZ Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Yup. I've worn out two. If you haven't noticed, these cars are OLD! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
30 ounce Posted June 24, 2015 Author Share Posted June 24, 2015 Thanks! Glad I'm not the only one. I have about 20 track days on these with very sticky tires so I guess I should have expected this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnc Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Rear hubs will also wear out (oval). I've thrown two away over the years. Front hubs need inspection every year or two if the car is raced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
