2005 Ls430 Front Wheel Hubs

[ScottC]

Hi

Does anyone know if the front wheel hubs sold in US are the correct ones for the UK models?

I asked the vendor and they said

Hello and thank you for your email.
Unfortunately we can only confirm this part will fit left hand drive vehicles, the best way to find out if this part is correct for your vehicle would be to contact a local dealership with your VIN and dealer part number 4355050011.

Fingers crossed that someone on the forum has been through this loop before.

Cheers

Great car by the way, my first 430.

May I ask why you need to replace both front hubs?

Hi

Well one or the other is making a noise so thought it best to just do them both and be done with it.

Hi

So my research leads me to the conclusion that there is only 1 front wheel hub assembly for the LS 430 which fits both sides of the car and is common across all continents.

Wide range of prices from about £50 to £300 plus postage and duty. Rockauto site illustrates a good range.

The noise gets worse on left handed bends and dissappears on right handers so guessing it is the passenger side bearing, this side being most likely to have hit a curb.
