Wonder what the difference is from pp to non? Is it just better with same fit?

2013+ PP has different components supposedly, I went ahead and ordered the non-PP Timiken off of RockAuto along with a OEM outer tie rod. Can't wait to get these installed! Paid $157 shipped!!

Looking forward to your observations on the performance of the new parts :)
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

I'll take a pic of the OEM I take off and the Timiken hub side by side for future reference :thumb:

I had a '04 Bonneville GXP and the hubs went at 42,000 miles and 70,000 miles.  I put in the Timkens as they were a far better product than the ACDelcos that were replaced.  Never had any trouble afterwards, sold the car with 125,000 and they were tight.  I ran the hell out of that car too.  Pretty much everyone on pontiacbonnevilleclub recommends Timken. 

BTW the Timkens are under $110 on RockAuto.  Here in town at the local parts place, $348.  The Motorcrafts are cheaper at the dealership than the Timkens anywhere locally.  Very good product.  Stay away from the Moogs, unless you enjoy doing hubs.
