Description
A front wheel hub seal is a component that helps to keep the wheel bearing lubricated and protected from dirt, water, and other contaminants. It is a rubber-coated metal ring that sits between the wheel hub and the axle.
They are an important part of the wheel assembly, and it plays a vital role in keeping your vehicle safe and running smoothly. If the seal fails, it can allow grease to leak out and dirt and water to get in. This can damage the wheel bearing and cause premature wear and tear.
Here are some of the signs that your front wheel hub seal may be failing:
- A whining or growling sound coming from the wheel when driving
- Grease leaking from the hub assembly
- A loose or wobbly wheel
- A burning smell coming from the wheel
