Thanks for the help.

 

Was gonna buy this setup as seen in this Centric TSB off eBay but my Groupon 15 dollar eBay certificate isn't working right now.

Hub and Rotor (separate pieces) updated number from Centric: 120.65128

Cheapest I found was on eBay for 147.33 per front side. So a total of 294.66 shipped.

Anyone find this cheaper than eBay?

 

Did the Centric kit about a year/15k miles ago. No issues so far.

 

nice pictures. ^^^^

I just realized i had to buy pads

Did pads did you go with?

And

What did you torque the center nut on the hub?

 

Yep, kit doesn't come with pads. I used Motorcraft stock replacement - if it aint broke why fix it. Got everything from Rock Auto.

 

R1 Concepts sells the hubs only. $195 shipped for both hubs and spindle nuts.

 

Link?

 

I just called their sales line. They were very nice and they guy i spoke to knew of the kit. Should be here Friday...

888-712-6623 - they are on the west coast.

Well how did the kit work out? Thinking I might have to do this soon...

 

Got my centric hub conversion. Now need to find some time to do it.

 

(Quoted to show images of the kit)

Just did this kit, Centric 120.65128 which is a hub, rotor, and nut. Simple R/R job and highly recommended.

Centric makes a conversion from solid to the two piece hub

You might try Frugal Mechanic for purchase

 

So just wanna make sure I'm getting the right stuff before I place an order and end up not having everything I need...
So if I order centric hubs #12465902 then get some 4x4 front rotors and pads and the retaining nuts I will be good to go? just want to make sure those hubs also include the bearings?
Gonna get hubs & nuts from rockauto then summitracing for the rotors and pads

Thanks for the help

 

MY TRUCK IS LIFTED WITH 35s...Its a 05 2wd and I have been replacing rotors/bearings it seems every 6 months,my wheel offset puts alot of strain as well...Anyone else with a lifted truck running this kit that can chime in?Are these better quality bearings?Can we replace bearings only,and not the whole hub assembly?

 

K,just got off the phone with Centric and the bearings are not replaceable,the hub needs to be replaced so I might be in the same neverending boat with bearing failure? Although he did say it is a better and stronger bearing design!Hopefully with this design,there is less strain on the bearings!He also stated most peoples biggest mistake is not torquing the nut down properly @ 295Lbs...Overtightening will cause premature failure!!! Once again,part number for entire kits-
120.65128 standard rotors!
120.65128SL.SR slotted!
124.65902 hub/bearing assy!
Getting ready to order now!Gawd I hope these last a while!!!
