I checked, Bill... the website says that hub is for up to '99
Cherokees... I mailed and asked, but AFAICT that hub
won't fit my application. Pity, too... save a few bux.

I'd say the every front wheel drive car that I've ever had the hubs
out of(and theres been a bunch of them)looked just like that.
Also S-10 and full sized Chevy and GMC trucks use pretty much the same
setup. The hubs on my S-10 had over 300,000 miles on them and were
still OK when I totaled the truck.
On a Geo Prizm(Toyota Corolla)you actually have to disassemble the
thing and replace the bearings only.
Seems it's a case of old technology replacing new technology...maybe
the tapered roller bearings weren't such a good idea after all.
