Front Hubs
for those of you who have replaced your front hubs did you go with the Timkens or Nationals. which one is the better of the two? im planning on doing a whole lot of front end preventative maintenance so im gonna replace the hubs and lube the needle bearings as well as all the vacuum seals and ball joints with a new set of rotors and hawk pads. im leaning towards the timkens since ive seen them at the international dealer close by.....

Timkin. I believe all, except the Chinese-made ones, are only re-boxed Timkins. If I recall correctly, Timkin is the OEM supplier, and the only one that makes the internal bearings.
Of course, maybe Timkin makes these in China, and the "Chinese-made" ones are coming off the same line. Who knows any more?
Paid $249 last time for the genuine article. 515020's are what mine takes.
