VIDEO: Hub Flange Runout Measurement

Find out why it's essential you measure the hub flange before a brake job. This video is sponsored by GSP North America.

SEE VIDEO BELOW

All hub flanges have some degree of runout. This is why there are tolerances in the service specification.

A flange may have up to .005” of runout, but it is impossible to see the damage with the naked eye. This is why measuring the hub flange with a dial indicator is essential when replacing a wheel bearing, axle shaft or brake rotor. This video is sponsored by GSP North America.
