Wheel hub opinion,experience

jozo1 · Mar 25, 2013

My Disco TD5 wheel bearing has gone and looking for a replacement.I have been looking on the web and there are many available from different manufacturers but are they good compare to original Land rover one.Some sellers sell OEM hubs but they dont say who make them.I rang few shops and they told me that the OEM hubs could be Britpart,Allmakes,Birchmach atc... but surely these are not OEM hubs.Does anybody has any experience with aftermarket hubs or is it a false economy to buy cheaper ones?

have read on here before that if it has decent bearings (iirc, timkins.) then supplier should`nt matter.
