Default Driver side front hub

Hello all,

I have a 92 ls400. I recently did the second gen front and rear Brake upgrade. When I did the swap I had notice the rotor did not fit snug around hub as well the rotor had a tiny bit of play around the studs.

Fast forward a couple months I decided to change the front rotors and pads because they were toast. With the new rotors installed I still have the same small play around the hub and rotor. There is clearly a difference in hubs between first and second gen ls400s. They have different part numbers from Lexus.

The front drivers side wheel bearing was worn prior to this brake swap. Only place I can source a new second gen hub from is the dealer and they want $180 plus tax. Does anyone know of a place I could get one for a cheaper, considering I would be replacing both passenger and driver hubs.

Yes, but only when londo or one of the others don't have the part.

Choose either Timken or SKF, both are reputable quality, both are under $40.
