Looking to replace my worn out D30 hubs. Auto value has either their house brand: Partsmaster which carries a lifetime warranty or they have Moog ones with a 1 year.
Anyone have experience with either and any recommendations?
Thank you!

I've been using Auto Value's house brand D30 hubs for a couple years now and I'd say they're excellent! They've certainly held up well to the abuse I put them under haha!
I've nothing against moog however as I also replaced all my upper/lower ball joints with the moog problem solvers and those have been superb too.
End of the day I'll say you won't have any problems with the auto value brand hubs, and they are a great price.

i always do AV hubs. for me they seem to last longer than premiums.
plus they warranty em no problem.

Okay thanks for the quick input!
-
just a note on those though
don't use an impact to tighten the hub nut when you put the new one on. crank it down by hand.

Keep your receipt. Clean them up a bit when you return them. Probably the last set you will need to buy.

wheelbearings.ca (http://wheelbearings.ca). Genuine Timkens for less than parts store cheapies-At least they were when I bought them. They replaced some AV parts master hubs that crapped the bed after about 13 months (which replaced the nine year old oem Timkens). I'd also check on the "lifetime" warranty. Mine was only a year.

My AV cheapies lasted only a few wheeling trips. Upgraded to moogs last summer and haven't had a problem since. AV is pretty good with their warranty.
