Default Bad hub/wheel bearings?

Does it sound like my hub/wheel bearing assembly is bad? Makes a weird popping noise, and also when i push/pull at 12 & 6 oclock there is a tiny bit of play. 2008 isf front driver side.

If so, does the Timken HA590428 fit? I was reading previous threads and a user mentioned the other ones on rockauto doesnt work. Can i replaced just the bearing? Thanks!

Yes, it's junk. No, you can't replace just the bearing, have to buy a whole new hub. The Timken catalog shows the HA590428 as their replacement for the left front hub on the IS-F.

http://www.showmetheparts.com/timken/

The trick to be sure you are getting the right part is to check what models the part fits. If it fits anything besides an IS-F, it's the wrong part. The front hubs on the F are unique in the Toyota parts catalog. The rear hubs are used on a whole array of Lexus cars, so they are pretty cheap.

i have a question, i have a weird feeling on my steering wheel when i am backing up the car or turn the wheel all the way, seem like something is kinda jumping on the suspension. would this fix my issue? or is my issue more of a ball joint problem?

Pretty sure the one i got from Autozone is the correct one. I know a lot of aftermarket ones are meant for the is250/350. I took lobuxracer's advice, if the hub you are buying says it will fit the ISF, is250, and is350, it will be the wrong one. The one on Autozone says it will only fit the ISF.

Autzone has a 20% off coupon code right now, got both front hubs for $314 shipped.

Yea thats the part number. Duralast DL590428 - Front Driver Side. Duralast DL590427 - Front Passenger Side. I installed the hub, but still waiting on new rotors and brake pads.

The Autozone hub and ISF hub are the same height, i believe the main difference on the is250/350 hubs is that they are shorter then the ISF hubs.

Here is a picture posted from a member that received the wrong hub. Notice how it is shorter then the ISF hub? The picture i posted in my previous post of the Autozone hub is the same height as the ISF hub.

Bump, feeling the same thing, would like to get thoughts on the possible cause.

Anyone have the torque specs of the hub bolts? I will be replacing my front hubs soon with some Timkens. Thanks!

Don't mean to thread jack but wanted to find out if I'm having a hub/bearing issue as well.

I've noticed recently when decelarting at low speed I hear from the inside of my car like a wheel of fortune noise, you know the clicks as it slows down, pic below for refernce lol.

It's coming from the front passenger side area and coming from around where the wheel hubs are but I can only hear it if the windows are closed and I'm decelarting slowly.

Can anyone shed some light on what it could be?

My front wheels skip when I'm turning sharp in a parking lot but I only notice it when going forward. This issue turned up in a corvette forum. If we're talking about the same issue this should explain it: http://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/...rol-issue.html
Is that the weird feeling you experience or is it clearly not the tires causing it?

Heres a diagram of an 08 wheel hub. We would use the 51 ftlb (or 51ftlb x 12 = 612 inlb) number since we're using a normal torque wrench not an SST. Can someone with an updated service manual confirm this? And is it the same for all model years?
