Support the rear wheel and help it spin smoothly with the Mevotech Supreme Wheel Bearing and Hub Assembly H512152. It is a pre-greased rear hub unit that Mevotech engineers in-house with application-specific upgrades for durability and performance. It fits many vehicles, among them the 2001-2003 Chevrolet Malibu, 2004-2005 Chevrolet Classic and 1999-2005 Pontiac Grand AM. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
A wheel bearing and hub assembly combines the bearing and hub in a single unit. It lets the wheel rotate on the bearing while holding it in position on the vehicle.
A Malibu wheel bearing may need replacing if you notice a humming or grinding noise that rises with road speed, play or looseness at the wheel, or uneven tire wear. Other components can cause these symptoms, so diagnose the cause first. If a worn rear hub assembly is the problem, H512152 replaces it as a single unit.
