The short version
- The 2004 Jeep Liberty wheel bearing front hub is handed on ABS trucks: 513176 on the left, 513177 on the right.
- Trucks without ABS use one unhanded number, 513178, documented through 2005.
- The rear rides a solid axle, so there is no rear hub number to look up.
- ABS or not, plus the side on ABS trucks, decides the front order for the whole 2002-2007 run.
2002 through 2007 is one Liberty generation with a front hub setup that is easy to get backward. A 2004 Jeep Liberty wheel bearing front order needs the ABS status first, and on ABS trucks, the side of the truck as well.

This page covers the 2002-2007 Jeep Liberty: 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007. Other years live on the main Jeep Liberty wheel bearing page.
The ABS front hub is handed, left 513176 and right 513177. Ordering the wrong side is a real risk with a part number this close between the two.
Non-ABS trucks skip the handed setup entirely and use one unhanded number, 513178, but only through 2005.
Year by year
2002 through 2007 keep the same handed pair on ABS trucks, 513176 left and 513177 right, for the whole run.
Non-ABS trucks use 513178 from 2002 through 2005. The rear stays solid axle territory across every year, with no hub number to order.
That handed front pair is the one number to keep straight across all six years.
Sourcing the rear separately
The rear axle on this Liberty is a solid design, not a hub bearing setup. See axle bearing versus wheel bearing for what that means for service.
That leaves the front hub as the only wheel bearing part to order on this generation, and it is worth confirming ABS status against the 2008-2012 Liberty, where the handed setup goes away entirely.
Diagnosing a 2002-2007 Jeep Liberty wheel bearing
- Check for ABS first. ABS trucks are handed, 513176 left and 513177 right; non-ABS trucks use 513178 through 2005.
- Confirm the side before ordering. The left and right ABS numbers are close together and easy to mix up.
- Jack up the wheel and check for play. Looseness in the hub points to replacement. See how to check a wheel bearing.
- Watch the ABS light along with the noise. A wearing hub can trip the light through its sensor. See a bad bearing and the ABS light.
- Rule out tire wear before ordering. Uneven tread can mimic a bearing hum at speed. See tire noise or wheel bearing.
Common questions
What is the 2004 Jeep Liberty wheel bearing part number?
The 2004 Jeep Liberty wheel bearing front hub is 513176 on the left or 513177 on the right for ABS trucks. Non-ABS trucks use 513178.
What wheel bearing does a 2006 Liberty use?
A 2006 Liberty with ABS uses the same handed pair as the rest of this generation, 513176 left or 513177 right. The 513178 non-ABS row stops after 2005.
Is the front wheel bearing on this Liberty handed?
Yes, on ABS trucks. The left side uses 513176 and the right side uses 513177, so the side has to be confirmed before ordering.
Does the rear wheel bearing have a part number?
No. The rear rides a solid axle on this generation, which is axle bearing territory rather than a hub number.
What happened to the non-ABS front hub number?
513178 is documented only through 2005. Later non-ABS trucks in this run are not covered by that row, so double check the ABS badge on the truck itself.
