Rear Hub and Bearing - Description






DESCRIPTION

The rear wheel bearing and wheel mounting hub used on this vehicle are a one-piece sealed unit or hub and bearing assembly. It is permanently lubricated when assembled and is sealed for life. There is no periodic lubrication or maintenance recommended for these units.





The hub and bearing (1) is mounted to the rear knuckle.

All vehicles have a magnetic encoder integrated into the rear hub and bearing for speed sense. The encoder works with the rear wheel speed sensor (2) to provide wheel speed signal.

The only serviceable components of the hub and bearing are the wheel mounting studs pressed into the hub.
