Default What's a good brand for front wheel hubs?

I was wondering if anyone can recommend a brand of loaded front hubs for the S Type that last a long time. I got a Timken loaded front hub and after less than three years there is already play in the front wheel hub bearing. Is Raybestos good for hubs and bearings? They have a longer warranty than most. The Motorcraft one for the Lincoln LS and Thunderbird are supposed to fit from what I understand. Any feed back would be appreciated.

every single one is chinese cheap **** unless you want to spend $150 for motorcraft.

some hubs use the earlier lincoln ls style sensor and some use the jag ones, doesn’t matter either way. if you’re cool with it lasting 3 years just buy the cheapest one.
