04 G35X Hub Assembly
Im trying to replace the front wheel bearing/hub assembly on my 04 G35X. I am having a hard time finding hubs that already have the bearings pressed on them. I found one seller on ebay but they currently only have one in stock. If anyone cant point me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance

They are not normally pressed in. If you find someone selling them pressed in, it's because they took the time to grab a bearing and hub and press it and sell it like that. But for the most part, you can't buy the parts from a parts vendor pressed already.
I can't imagine a shop charging much to do the pressing. It takes literally 3-5 minutes to set up and do.

I recently replaced the bearings on both front wheels on mine. I did some searching, but I could only find the bearing aftermarket, no front hub for the G35x. I ended up going to the dealer and ordering them both.
They are sold separately. The first set I bought, the parts counter guy asked if I would like them pressed and did it. The second time, I had just inquired about it (evidently to the shop manager), who carried on about how it isn't bought like that and they don't press them together as he took them into the shop to press them together...both bought at the same dealer.

Timkin bearings are the OEM bearing. The OEM manufacturer is NTN which is a Japanese bearing manufacturer. Timkin is a distributor for them, so if you order a bearing from them, it should be a repackaged NTN bearing. which is OEM.
I replaced 4 on my car, one was dealer bought OEM, and three were timkin. All made by NTN
