OK so I've read fx45s' are infamous for wheel hub issues. my rear one seized and messed up my axel and now I have to buy that on top of three wheel hubs. I've seen a few places online that sell oem replacement parts like infinitipartsusa.com, infinitypartsonline.com, and oemonlineparts.com to name a few. has anyone had any experience with any of these sites? Any suggestions or input would be greatly appreciated.
 
I've bought plenty from both infiniti sites you listed with no issues.

Like mtn suggested, rockauto has cheap aftermarket replacement hubs. I replaced both of mine from that site and all is good after 5k miles

So rock auto has decent hubs? I didn't want to go too cheap. I've seen that people have bought hubs from rock auto and had to replace the hubs between 10k and 30k. those who bought oem from infiniti sites had better reviews and claimed they were longer lasting. And also will I need any extra parts besides the wheel hubs and the drive shaft?
 
Hmmm... one bad hub should not cause the other 3 hubs to go bad. Normally, all you need is to replace the bad one. I have bought many Timken brand hubs from Rockauto.
 
when I purchased the car the dealership did not disclose that the car need two front wheel hubs and one rear hub even though they knew about it. I will try rockauto out but the drive shaft had to come from japan and is on back order. Thanks for your input guys you've been helpful. idk how to do the thanks "thanks given" thing i'm pretty new on here...I cant even figure out how to upload a profile pic lmao but thanks again everyone!!!
 
Timken's very good! Along with ntn and koyo. Theyre as close as you can get to oem. They actually make bearings for
oem manufacturers
 
I bought OEM ones, never any issues. Replaced front one about 60K ago, and rear one about 5K ago.

When my front went out, I had vibration in my steering wheel. When the rear went out 5 months ago, my car sounded like Chewbacca all of the sudden
 
Best deals are from Rockauto. Just did both of my front bearings and tie rods.

Timken # HA590125 for the front $125.79
Moog # 541002 for the rear $91.79

did you feel the vibration all the time? or at certain times?
 
No I didn't look into re manufactured drive shafts. I had to order it from the infiniti plant in Japan...it's on international back order and may take up to 45 days to get here smh
