I have a front left wheel bearing going bad. If I buy the wheel hub assembly, will it come with the bearing already pressed in?

Hello,

Yes, most of the hub assemblies have the bearing already pressed in. They are plug and play. To be sure though you might want to check with the retailer that you are buying the hub assembly from. In the diagrams down below I have included the instructions from the vehicle manufacturer on the removal and installation of the hub assembly on your vehicle. Please go through this guide and get back to us with how everything turns out.

Thanks,
Alex
