why did I buy aftermarket bearings!

[admsbmr]

note to self, why did I buy crap aftermarket front wheel bearings? new motorcraft ones are now ordered after a short 3 months with the crap aftermarket ones. I guess you live and learn with cheap stuff.

Yep

I made the same mistake.

I got one for $ 99 from ebay, lasted very short time, I think few days, they sent me a new one, and that broke the moment I dropped the car off the jack, and I said - no more. Since I had to get to work quickly, I went to Ford and overpaid but got OEM for $350 or so. But it's been good fro the past 70k miles I believe.
