Review on πŸš— Reliable Performance: Timken 517008 Tapered Wheel Bearing - Enhance Vehicle Stability and Safety by Walt Smirnoff

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Competitive price but limited warranty.

I bought it for my 2000 Subaru Legacy in October 2014. Almost exactly a year later my bearing broke. I have Amazon Prime and prefer the lower prices, but the only downside is the warranty is limited to a few bucks more than the same part at Advanced Auto, especially if you use their promo coupons online. Disclaimer: I acknowledge that human error may have caused the bearing to fail (overtorque, undertorque, insufficient lubrication, etc.); However, I've been working on my cars for almost 30 years and I don't appreciate that this bad boy's warranty is only 30 days. Take your time with the install and I'd love to see if anyone has the same experience.

Pros
  • High Performance Bearing
Cons
  • High Price
