    I replaced mine yesterday but Idk if i got a bad part or did something wrong. The car drove fine and after a few block it gave up. Went back home and jacked up the car, plenty of play in the wheel. I took the tire, rotor and caliper off and the hub is shifting forward and back. It has too much play, was i supposed to hammer it in gently like you ? Or did i get a bad part?

    Do I have to replace the entire hub or can one just put in a new front bearing?
