Hi, does anybody know if there's another wheel bearing that will fit my 2005 GT, it seems to have a slight noise whilst driving, but I'm unable to locate where it's coming from so I thought that I would replace all the wheel bearings first, but OE are very expensive and it comes as a complete unit with hub, seperate bearing maybe?

Before spending lots of money why not take it to an indie to at least confirm what the problem is?

Iv'e already had it checked, there's no play in any wheel bearings, doesn't get louder/quieter as you go round bends, maybe more than one noisey. Easier to replace them all, its just the cost!

It’s four wheel drive. Put it up on a two poster ramp, turn the traction control off and get one person to run the vehicle up to speed with another listening. Should take all of ten minutes max.
