Front Wheel Hub Assembly:




DESCRIPTION

The inner and outer wheel bearings for the front wheel hub are no longer available separately as service parts. If the front wheel bearings need to be replaced, the front wheel hub assembly, which includes the wheel bearings, must be replaced. The oil seal can be ordered separately.

Mazda has determined that the aluminum front wheel hub may be damaged by pressing the old wheel bearing race out of the hub. Therefore, Mazda has decided not to make the bearings available separately.
