The rear axle hub and bearing assembly is crucial for your vehicle’s safety and ride comfort. It supports the wheel’s rotation and ensures smooth movement. The bearing reduces friction while the hub connects the wheel to the axle, allowing stable and reliable driving.
How It Works
This assembly houses precision bearings that fit inside the hub. As your wheels spin, the bearing reduces friction and distributes your vehicle’s weight, letting the wheel turn freely. The hub acts as a secure mounting point for the wheel and links directly to the suspension for effective handling.
Risks of a Broken Assembly ⚠️
Noisy operation (grinding or humming sounds)
Uneven or wobbly wheel rotation
Increased tire and brake wear
Potential loss of wheel at high speed (in extreme cases)
ABS and traction control warning lights
Never ignore a faulty hub and bearing assembly, as it is vital for secure and stable driving!
