Ultima Front Wheel Hub & Bearing Assembly — HA5246

The Ultima HA5246 is a front wheel hub and bearing for compatible Lexus RX and Toyota Kluger vehicles. The hub and bearing are supplied together; the bearing requires pressing onto the hub prior to fitment.

• Hub and Bearing Supplied Together: both components are included — the bearing must be pressed onto the hub before installation
• Professional Pressing Required: pressing the bearing onto the hub requires the correct workshop press equipment — have this done by a qualified workshop
• Front Axle Application: supports the vehicle's weight at the front corner and allows the wheel to rotate freely

When to replace: A failing wheel bearing typically produces a droning or rumbling noise that rises and falls with vehicle speed, often changing as the car leans through a corner. In later stages you may feel roughness or play in the wheel. A worn bearing will not repair itself — replacement should not be deferred.

Fitting notes:

• The bearing must be pressed onto the hub — this requires a workshop press and should be carried out by a qualified mechanic
• Torque the hub nut to specification — an incorrectly torqued hub nut is a common cause of premature bearing failure
• Check that your existing hub matches the assembly shown in the listing images before ordering — hub assemblies for the same vehicle can differ in bolt hole count and ABS sensor ring configuration

Note: This item is for 1 SIDE ONLY — unless stated otherwise. If the picture shows 2 or more units it is because it is showing different sides for identification purposes.
