Hub /Bearing: Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Dodge Intrepid, 2004 Chrysler Intrepid, 2004 Chrysler Concorde, and 2004 Chrysler 300M. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The front wheel bearing and front wheel hub of this vehicle are a hub and bearing unit type assembly. This unit combines the front wheel mounting hub (flange) and the front wheel bearing into a sealed one piece unit. The hub and bearing is mounted to the center of the steering knuckle and is retained by three mounting bolts accessible from the rear of the steering knuckle. The hub flange has five wheel mounting studs.
The wheel mounting studs used to mount the tire and wheel to the vehicle are the only replaceable components of the hub and bearing assembly. Otherwise, the hub and bearing is serviced only as a complete assembly.
