The short version
- An Isuzu wheel bearing order splits into three stories: GM twins, real Isuzus, and the serviceable old guard.
- The Ascender is a TrailBlazer and takes its 513188 front; the Hombre is an S10.
- The 2002 to 2004 Rodeo and Axiom run the 513165 front hub.
- Everything earlier services with tapered bearings, the 32009-XA family with seal 710168.
Isuzu left the American passenger market in 2009, but its trucks were either GM products in disguise or honest old-school 4x4s, and both kinds remain easy to feed.
Sort your truck into its story
An Ascender Isuzu wheel bearing is the TrailBlazer’s 513188; an Hombre takes S10 parts.
Late real Isuzus, the 2002 to 2004 Rodeo and Axiom, run the 513165 hub, and everything before them repacks.

The serviceable old guard
The classic Isuzu 4×4 fronts are tapered sets behind seals, cleaned and greased on schedule like any vintage truck.
Water is the enemy and the seal is the defense; the procedure is on the repacking page.
The donors with their own pages
The GM twins are covered in full where the volume lives: the TrailBlazer page for the Ascender and the S10 page for the Hombre. Search the donor’s name for depth and price.
Diagnosing an Isuzu wheel bearing
- Identify twin, real or vintage before anything else.
- On a vintage truck, check the grease first; service usually wins.
- Weave at speed and place the hum.
- Rock each wheel at twelve and six.
- Ask about water crossings on any trail truck.
The routine is on the checking page.
Common questions
Which Isuzu wheel bearing fits my Rodeo?
2002 to 2004, the 513165 hub. Earlier Rodeos are serviceable 32009-XA sets with seal 710168.
My Ascender needs a front hub. What do I buy?
The TrailBlazer’s 513188. Same truck, different grille.
Can I still service the old fronts?
Yes, that is the design. Sets and seals remain ordinary stock items.
Do I need a press?
Not for the hubs or the serviceable fronts. Rear axle bearings are their own separate job.
Are parts scarce for a dead brand?
No. Between GM twinning and standard tapered sets, everything here stays available.
