Default Wheel Bearings

Well, the driver side hub on my stang is needing to be changed out. I replaced the passenger side around 5-6 months ago, and I know I should have changed them at the same time, but money wouldn't allow it. Now my question is should change both front hubs this time or since the one was changed recently would I get away with just the one that needs it? Any input would be great.

I think you should be fine if you just change the one, that's not long ago. I just replaced the fronts 2 days ago.

Same thing happened to me. I put a new one on the driver side, then the passenger side went out a couple months later.

I think it's more of a preventative maintenance kinda thing, so some tech's may not mention it but I have always been told this is one of those things you replace in pairs. I got 1 on order so this will get done soon.
