Sean, If you need something, call, we'll work with you. They aren't going away, but the GP type pricing just isn't possible with so few interested.

So I will still be able to get one later, but it will cost more? That's fair.
Do you still need cores? I have a collection for you. |

Doug,
At the moment they are not available. There was a recent failure and, until I know exactly why the part failed, I'm not making any more. I have no interest in selling an inferior part, so I hope you understand. Once the cause is determined I'll post it up and either make corrections or resume selling, it depends on whether the cause was an isolated issue or common issue. I appreciate you interest and yes the design does apply to the 91+ C4 as well as 4th gen F-bodies. I'm hoping to resolve this quickly but if you're in need of hubs ASAP, I suggest getting another set of stockers for now. |

newbie Group: Advanced Members Posts: 6 Joined: 28-July 10 From: Canada Member No.: 17,107 ![]() |
I have a C4 Vette and I am having trouble finding quality front hubs. Apparently SKF no longer makes a part, and just about the only name brand left in the game is Timkin. Am I missing any??
The Timkin part number for 4th gen hubs is 513090, and the C4 hub part number is 513085. Other than the Camaro 4th gen bolt holes being threaded, is there any difference between the actual bearing themselves? The 4th gen hubs are nearly $100 cheaper, however if the bearing will fail faster it is of no value and I will purchase the more expensive C4 hub part # Can anyone provide insight? Thanks, Chris |

There is no other difference in the two part numbers. In fact, if you buy the 4th gen PN, all you need to do to install them is insert your existing bolts through from the back. The threads are the same. This is only true for 91+ C4.
As for the quality of the Timkens, I can't say. I used to kill them just as fast as any other brand. |

Here is a new solution to this persistent 4th Gen front hub/bearing issues. Check out the newly designed front hub assembly that retains ABS functionality here: Hoosier Performance Engineering's billet 4th Gen hub
