i have had some serious issues with my steering, hub assemblys,abs system, just all kinds of ****. Well my wheel hubs are out again so i called gm an they wanna charge 550 bucks per hub. i thought that was quite umm insane. Just wonderin what you guys thought on a hub choice an will a aftermarket hub work?? The last aftermarket hubs i bought from orileys didnt do all so hot the speed sensors where causing the traction control to kick in. Where can i get hubs cheaper? my dealership said they had to be actully Genuine GM made hubs not so sure i believe that but??? thanks for your time

Yea its legit, I order parts I want but dont need w/ in the next week. The shipping typically takes 10-15 days. It really a gm dealership, not direct from gm. Another thing I do is print out the price for the part and take it to the local dealer. Sometimes they pricematch it, others its about 10% higher- but i'm not paying shipping charges and usually have it next day.
Their return policy looks like a cluster****, so i'd email them to make sure you are getting the right part.

You can find them at any aftermarket parts store. I go through the bearings because of the tires I am running. Luckly I have a great relationship with my local Advance Auto parts store. They used to have lifetime guarantees on them when I bought my first set. So I never have to pay for them again. The job takes no more than 45 minutes to swap one out once you learn how to do it. The key is to specify it for hummer. I think the ones for the 2500's might have different electronics in them.

yea iam not sure what the problem was with this last set it messed up my trac control system an abs system. The hubs where for a hummer aswell but you maybe right they might have sold me a set that fits a 2500 an thats why the electronics didnt work right. The truck would say traction active an jurk to the left, basically the wheels where spinning diffrent speeds,So the trac control system was detecting a FAKE SLIP causing the truck to be all over the road, jurk, and the brakes kickin back like its sliding nothing but a mess basically
