NSK 49BWKHS68J Axle Bearing and Hub Assembly - Rear Left

Axle Bearing and Hub Assembly for Rear Left Service

The NSK 49BWKHS68J is a rear left axle bearing and hub assembly built for select Toyota and Lexus applications with ABS. It combines a vehicle-specific OE-style fit with a sealed, low-friction bearing design to support smooth wheel rotation and consistent hub performance.

Compatible with 2012-2017 Toyota Camry rear left, 2013-2018 Toyota Avalon rear left, and 2016-2018 Lexus ES350 rear left, including ABS wheel speed sensor applications on the Lexus ES350. The NSK 49BWKHS68J is a direct-fit driveline and axle service part for these confirmed applications.

• ABS equipped with sensor-type tone ring / magnetic encoder configuration
• Premium OE technology for vehicle-specific fit, form, and performance
• Superfinished precision-matched bearing raceway for low-friction operation
• Advanced multi-lip seal technology for water and contamination resistance
• Sealed-for-life design with premium all-weather grease for zero-maintenance service
• 5 wheel studs, M12x1.5 thread, with 114.3 wheel flange bolt circle diameter

Detailed Product Overview

NSK is known for advanced rolling bearing engineering and supplies components to major automotive manufacturers and suppliers worldwide. The 49BWKHS68J uses that OE-focused approach in a third-generation hub assembly with a 4-bolt mounting flange, 152 mm flange diameter, 67.5 mm flange offset, 74 mm hub pilot diameter, and 60 mm wheel pilot diameter. It is a non-driven rear left assembly for Toyota Camry, Toyota Avalon, and Lexus ES350 applications where ABS wheel speed sensing is required.

This part cross-references common OE-style hub applications for the same vehicle positions, including Toyota and Lexus rear left hub assemblies in the listed model years.

What This Part Helps Address

• Wheel bearing noise from worn or rough bearing surfaces
• ABS warning lights caused by a failing wheel speed sensor hub assembly
• Excessive wheel play or looseness at the rear hub
• Contamination-related bearing wear from damaged sealing
• Uneven hub rotation or vibration at the rear wheel position

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rear left fitment by year, make, model, and ABS configuration before installation. Confirm the wheel stud size, bolt circle, and pilot dimensions match the vehicle specification, and inspect the mating knuckle and brake components for wear or damage during service. Because this is a sealed hub assembly, no routine bearing adjustment is required after installation.

Quality Assurance

NSK manufactures bearing products for demanding OE and aftermarket use, with an emphasis on bearing life and operating performance. The sealed construction, precision raceway finish, and contamination-resistant sealing are intended to support consistent service in everyday driving conditions.
