Moog front hubs any good?

MOOG is hit or miss these days as you never know what's going to be in the box. At one point I had 3 MOOG wheel hub assemblies - all in identical boxes with identical part numbers - with 3 different assemblies. One was made by MOOG, another by SKF and and another by Timkin.

Guess we'll see what they send this time. Hopefully SKF or Timken bearings.

I find the best replacement Hub Wheel Bearings to purchase are TIMKEN hubs. I replaced my right rear hub at 100k and at 218k, it is still rolling strong. I read somewhere that TIMKENs are used as OEM parts for my 2007 Ford Expedition. Moog parts are made in China and I hear sooooo many complaints regarding their longevity.

Would gladly purchase a front Timken hub if it was available for the 4wd 4th Gens. Haven't seen any such animal though.

My dealer told me same thing, but they did some kind of expedited order. They got it in in less than a week. They said that there was only 1 dealership in the state of West Virginia that had one and they wouldn’t get rid of it.

no difference between 2wd and 4A. I also had them check the vacuum lines, check valves and actuators.
