Volvo Wheel Bearing and Hub Assembly - SKF 31360027

Product Information

A wheel hub serves as the central part of the wheel that connects to the axle and allows the wheel to rotate freely. The hub will sometimes contain or be pressed into the wheel bearings, which facilitate smooth wheel rotation and support the weight of the vehicle.

• Vibration or Wobbling: If the hub or bearings are worn out, you may feel vibrations or wobbling in the steering wheel or throughout the vehicle while driving, especially at higher speeds
• Abnormal Tire Wear: A damaged wheel hub can lead to misalignment, resulting in uneven tire wear. Inspecting the tires may reveal bald spots or excessive wear on one side
• Loose Wheel: If the wheel hub is severely damaged, it may cause the wheel to feel loose or wobbly when you shake it while the vehicle is parked. This is especially concerning if it happens after changing a tire
