Replacement Front Wheel Hubs

[Kitty's VR4]

I received a PM from a member about 10 minutes ago about what wheel bearing/hubs assemblies I used to replace mine. Thought this might be handy info for members who don't want to pay +$400ea from ripsubishi. This is a direct OEM replacement part, they are available as a single unit or sold in pairs.

If you go to World Suspension Ebay Store (aka best suspension) then in the side search bar type 513157 and then tick the search title & description box. This is the correct wheel bearing/hub assembly for the front of the EC5A & EC5W 1996-2002 Galants & Legnums.

They took 5 days to arrive at my door from when I clicked buy-now button. Just as a price comparison 2x Assemblies cost $213au from them delivered, compared to the $426 that i was quoted from Ripsubishi for a single unit and they said it would take 2-3weeks to get them into stock. Mitsubishi Part # MR334386

Josh, just the hub/bearing assembly. I think your after the Series 2 wheel carrier assembly??? perhaps one of the Brembo guru's can give you the definitive answer.

I just checked ASA and its description comes up as Knuckle, there is a left and right wheel knuckle, Gen Series2 Mitsubishi Part #'s Left = MR369425 / Right = MR369426 again can one of the Brembo guru's confirm??

Thanks Kat!

Hmm, speaking of fitting to Brembos. I will have to double check if these hubs will snug fit to Evo rotors. I am assuming that it will since Evo 4-6 is same as ours.

i have bought this 2 hubs from bestsuspension and fitted now, super service and a good price, they arrived me in a week from usa to germany :-D

the only problem that i have now are my tires, they are very loud, but i think i need some rear hubs too:-(

The hubs will be fine with EVO 4-9 rotors

Thanks for the usefull info Kat!

The hubs are pretty well listed all year. This is the latest listing. I have them marked on my ebay watch page along with engine mounts and suspension bushes

Hey Guys.
I read this thread.
My sugestion for a cheaper option is also this.
I found a guy who was selling a Ser2 legnum.
I agreed with him to swap the Ser1 over to a Ser2 hubs.
I paid him a few bucks for his effort and he was happy as he was not going to ever install brembos and he was selling his car so he didnt care.
Basically before you sell your Ser2 offer to swap the hubs with a Ser1 owner who wants to install brembos.
They will throw you a $100 or more and everyone is happy except for the new owner who may want to install brembos.
Just an extra thought.

I bought 515357 here https://en.tradebearings.com/513157-172368.html
The price is remarkably affordable, beyond what you might expect. I hope this proves beneficial for you.
