Rebuilding or servicing hubs comes with risks. Servicing a hub oftentimes requires rebuilding the hub by replacing bearing cups and cones, the wheel seal, and manually-adjusting the bearings. Improperly servicing a hub can create a variety of wheel end problems, which could include a wheel off situation, leading to the possibility of serious injury and up to hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines or damages.
Given the risks of rebuilding hubs, what are the benefits of replacing them with ConMet’s PreSet Aftermarket hubs?
