Detailed Product Description and Specifications

The DuraGo 295-15050 wheel bearing and hub assembly is designed to meet the specific requirements of select Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles. This driven hub assembly features a 27-spline axle interface, ensuring a secure connection to the drivetrain. The assembly includes five 1/2-20 sized wheel studs, which are pre-installed to facilitate wheel mounting. The flange is triangular with three bolt holes sized M12 x 1.75, providing a stable mounting surface with a flange diameter of 160 mm and an offset of 48.3 mm.

Multiple pilot diameters are specified for precise fitment: wheel pilot diameters of 2.78 inches (70.5 mm), brake pilot diameters of 3.22 inches (81.9 mm), and hub pilot diameters of 3.35 inches (85 mm). These measurements ensure proper alignment of the wheel, brake rotor, and hub assembly, reducing vibration and improving vehicle stability.

Equipped with an ABS sensor and sensor cord, this assembly supports the vehicle's anti-lock braking system, enhancing safety and braking performance. The sensor type is integrated into the hub, allowing for accurate wheel speed monitoring.
