Wheel Hubs

Wheel Hubs

Alright... I have replaced both front wheel bearings twice (one side three times) over the last 3 months. Kinda driving me crazy and poor at the same time. After looking around on the net, am I right to assume that the wheel hubs also needs to be replaced, and that they are just destroying the new bearings??
I have zero play at 9 and 3 positions, but massive play at 6 and 12 o'clock positions on the front tires (and this is with brand new wheel bearings from rockauto)...
So for hubs, checking on online FAST, the hub is the same as a sentra... but problem is I can't seem to find a front hub for sale on the net, only rear hubs. Anyone help me or have some for sale?

Thanks a bunch!

I wish i could say yes, but I ended up buying entire knuckle assemblies with hubs, bearings etc rather than deal with replacing the hubs.

I have hubs off nx2000s which are the b13 chassis aswell , if you are interested I have a few sets that could use some paint and new bearings

They look the same dimension wise and should bolt in. They have the same wheel bearings, same brakes, and i believe the same ball joints, but the tie rod ends are different. GTIR take maxima tie rod ends but the difference is in the steering rack thread size and not the hub taper seat.

I compared my gtir hubs to my nx hubs. However, my nx didn't have ABS so you might want to double check that, as that was the only difference I could see. Some nx's came with 4 wheel abs so you might be able to find an exact match.
