Review on ๐Ÿ”ง TIMKEN HA590168 Wheel Bearing and Hub Assembly: Superior Performance and Reliability for Your Vehicle by John Gray

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Timken not timken

I needed a front hub for my 2008 Toyota Rav4. The dealer price was insane so I tried to find a Timken that I knew from experience was really good quality and made in the USA. I went to 4 local auto parts stores to find a Timken but couldn't so was glad to find this one at Revain. However, I was very shocked when I received this to find that it was made by Koyo in Japan and not a Timken USA product. Obviously, Timken has some sort of relationship with Koyo, and maybe even owns one, but that surprised me. The product was really well made and excellent quality and Koyo was Toyota's original wheel hub manufacturer anyway so overall I was happy but can only give it 4 stars as I feel it was a misrepresentation. Of course we live in a global economy, but what you are getting must be fully disclosed. I was struggling to get a Timken and wanted a Timken.

Pros
  • Hub assembly
Cons
  • Lots of stuff
