95 Tracker 4x4 Wheel Assembly NEW??
« on: March 09, 2018, 12:55:29 PM »
Anyone know who sells a new 95 Geo Tracker front Wheel assembly for a 4x4?  Was hoping to find a quality one with the bearings and seals.  I don't know if my LSi had ABS plan on looking this weekend but want to find the parts so I can start planning.
Thanks

What exactly do YOU consider a "front wheel assembly"?

A "wheel" is generally the assembled tire & rim combination - no bearings or seals involved.  Are you looking for a complete front hub?

Yes the hub, my locking hubs mounting bolts have been cross threaded - I thought NAPA had a set but now can't locate a set. Since I need new wheel bearings now is the time to replace the setup and possibly other parts that are worn.  I see some used on eBay but want to see if I can locate a quality aftermarket set with good bearings since its used a little harder than most vehicles are.
Don't they still sell Sidekicks/Trackers in South America as Escudo's?  You wonder if the parts are the same.

When you replace the bearings and seals, you have replaced the parts that wear.  So getting a used hub that hasn't been cross threaded, or ran until the bearings have disappeared, is close to getting a new one.  Whether you or a shop do the work, make sure they are torqued to factory specs.  Most do not, the first time.  150 psi seems unreal.  And it takes a special socket that costs 50 bucks (and it isn't hard to break off one of the tabs around 125 psi, so keep it square).

As far as I know the vehicles you know as Sidekicks/Trackers are no longer being built anywhere in the world - they stopped making first gens somewhere around 2002/2003, second gens were made up to maybe 2012/2013.  Third gens, I believe are still being made, but I don't think they will continue to make them for much longer.
