TRQ Rear Wheel Bearing & Hub Assembly Set Compatible with Cadillac

Our review of the TRQ 2 Piece Rear Wheel Bearing & Hub Assembly set finds it best suited for owners of mid-2000s Cadillac CTS and STS models who need a straightforward OE replacement. The set is a direct fit replacement that includes both driver and passenger side assemblies, making it the single most convenient option for someone replacing both rear hubs at once. Installation is generally simple for anyone comfortable with wheel and hub work, and the package references OE numbers so buyers can confirm vehicle compatibility before purchase.

Key Features

• Direct Fit: Designed as an OE replacement so it installs without modification on specified CTS and STS rear positions.
• Complete Pair: The kit includes two wheel bearing and hub assemblies, which saves time and ensures matched wear characteristics.
• OE Reference Numbers: Supplied OE reference numbers help verify compatibility with factory parts on supported model years.
• Wide Aftermarket Cross-Reference: Multiple aftermarket reference numbers are provided to aid parts lookup and comparison.
• Application Notes: Fitment details list specific model years and drive types so buyers can confirm fit before ordering.

Who It's For

The set is ideal for owners of 2003-2007 Cadillac CTS and 2005-2011 Cadillac STS who want a like-for-like replacement for worn rear wheel bearings and hubs. It is also a good choice for independent mechanics and DIYers who prefer to replace both sides at once to maintain balanced handling and consistent wear.

It is not the right choice for vehicles outside the listed fitment or for owners who need front hub assemblies for all configurations; confirm the fitment information against your VIN or vehicle specifics before purchase. Buyers seeking a reconditioned or OEM-sourced factory unit may prefer to source a factory reman instead.
