 Wheel hub assembly help please?
Sup guys, I was wondering if someone knows how much is the life time of a wheel hub assembly? My car started making a noise like a buzz on the front wheels when I'm driving like a 40, so I went to a tire-shop and this guy told me that probably one of the front wheel hub assembly is worn already  could be this possible? if yes any places where I can get this part cheap lol  they're expensive in some places, here is the picture of a new hub assembly:

jack it up, grab tire at 12 oclock and 6 oclock and try to wobble the wheel. Does it wobble? If yes= buy new hub assembly, cheaper than front end and medical bill when wheel falls off. If no = Kick guy who told you that. Tell everyone on the internet. ???????. PROFIT!!

 Re: Wheel hub assembly help please?
yours is probabaly seal died and it got contaminated. But it did end up being wheel bearing eh?

 Re: Wheel hub assembly help please?
If the tire wobbles that could also indicate a bad tie rod. To know for sure you should take the wheel off and check the bearing itself for play
