Disc rear hub question

Alright so my rear disc bearings are going out. Never done this before but was suggested a few things from different people.

Replace bearing and most say just buy new hub assembly. I am thinking of just buying 2 new hub assembly with bearings, studs, etc.. Now I am stuck on which brand? From my research I hear oem is made by NTN and/or KOYO. Anyone have experience from either or know any information..


Last, any DIY on how to do so..


Thanks!

if i remember right orielly's brand is mostly made by NTN or NTK and i think its name is national brand

if all fails you can pick up the assembly on ebay for like 50 bucks. and i think its made by NTN or Beck and Arnie which is an OEM supplier also.

Thanks!

I'm most likely going with NTN hub assembly.
