    i've replaced all but my rear passenger wheel hub assemblies over the life of the car (2003 GP GT ~165k miles) and would now like to pro-actively replace the rear.

    which mfg is recommended? i would either be purchasing from rockauto or from local (glendale auto, napa, etc).

    any recommendations?
    thank you,

    I grabbed SKF off Amazon as they had the best price. 62K miles and running strong. There is something nice about having a local warranty though.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.
