2012 Expedition Limited 2WD 18in wheels wheel bearing replacement

[RobE]

I found my front driver side wheel bearing had play in it when I was rotating my tires. My 2012 has 167k miles on it. I purchased a Detroit Axle wheel bearing from Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07CJGL8CN/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) $89 .vs Motorcraft which is $200+. I was impressed with the quality of the component and it came with the correct speed sensor harness and the wire clips for securing it to the chassis. No indication of the country of manufacture on the box so I assume it was made overseas. Time will tell if it lasts, but with 167k on my Expedition, if it lasts 100k, I will have gotten value from it.

I have a Detroit Axle wheel bearing on an Infiniti and it has about 10000 miles on it. So far so good. I wasn't about to put an OEM priced bearing on a 12yr old vehicle.
