The wheel bearings I bought from one of the big vendors a few years ago have already gone bad. I am getting a lot of wheel wobble, and I am rather certain it is the bearings. The entire front end has been rebuilt including new a-arms. The wobbling the wheel produces no movement in any of the other suspension components.
In defense of the bearings I installed: I did install them backwards and drive around for a few miles before realizing my mistake.
That said, I would like for this to be the last time I install front bearings on this car.
I have inquired with Winner's Circle on their tapered bearing kit. If I can afford that, that is what I will get.
But if that is too expensive, I am considering this kit:

Does anyone have any experience with this kit? I have had real good luck with the quality of parts from BP Northwest so far. But I am not seeing anything that makes me think this kit is any different than what the big vendors are selling.
