Wheel Bearings Front and Rear

[blakedanatural]

Hello All,
My 2015 Gt Premium is closing in on 137k miles and I want replace old original parts. For the wheel bearings must replace with OEM Ford wheel bearings or can I use aftermarket ones. If anybody has replaced their without using Ford OEM parts please list the company.
Thank you,
Blake

Stick with OEM. Aftermarket are a hit and miss. OEM gives you the confidence that they will work just fine.

Send it on detroit axle, I got 30k on one with extended studs and a 25mm spacer lolol. I did use a new axle nut though.

For the people I care for on a budget: timken has always been great.

If you don’t care about the budget get the ford performance units.

Yep - I’ll agree if not going with a Ford part, the Timken bearing is my first choice aside from Ford supplied parts. I’ve always used the Timken bearings whether it’s for wheel bearings or clutch parts and I’ve never had any issues with their parts.

I replaced with Moog. Seem to be holding up fine. If the original Ford hubs on my car only lasted 60k they can't be that good. The Moog were much cheaper.

Timken = China I would not put these on a car I was sending to the junkyard.
Moog= China

BCA, SKF or Ford = USA They are all reboxed OEM hubs for the most part.

We have a pair of Timken rear hubs, free to anyone who will pay the shipping.

Your standards for junkyard cars are incredibly high!!!!

So many high quality parts coming out of CN now it's all depends on the brands spec and QC....I would just get Ford since so much aftermarket is hit and miss.

NTN BEARINGS, or FAG are other choices. NTN is supposed to be top notch.
The other thing is a lot of the manufacturers have different manufacturing facilities in different countries so the same company may have a bearing manufacturer plant in China Mexico, USA, Britain.
