Default Rear hub

So the abs sensor in my right rear hub as been bad for a while I been ignoring it beacuse I been fixing other things I'm about to do the rear breaks so I figure now is a good time to replace the hub. What are some good places to get that hub and brands I can use I seen some for 36 bucks and other 100 I didn't really wana spend 100 if I don't have to beacuse of all the other things I just fixed but that's y I'm asking here.

Get Timken and order them from RockAuto. I've been burned enough with the "cheaper" wheel hubs. Get a cheap one and don't be surprised if you are doing the job in 1.5 years again, get Timken and possibly never do it again.

There is a reason you have such a large price difference in this product. Timken is typically not the most expensive, but they are also not the cheapest, but they are reliable.

Timkin is a Brand that has been around forever most likely they are still made in the USA, Back in the 80's I worked for a Distributor that handled them for big equipment and I never saw a failure.
