Hub assembly quesiton

I have to replace a wheel bearing hub assembly on my 04 GP. I have been looking online for the part to buy but I have a few question (I think are fairly simple) first. :th_scratchhead:

1) Is there a difference between an Axle Bearing & Hub Assembly and a Wheel Bearing/Hub Assembly?
I am thinking about going with the Timken Hub (Part# HA590092) from Rock Auto for $82.79, but it comes with a 1 yr warranty...
2) Should I be concerned about this? (The same Timken from the local part store has a warranty that last 3 yrs, but it cost $146.99)
3) Do Timken Hubs generally last for a while or will I be in the same position in a 1-2yrs?
I have seen in several forums that people tend to recommend Timken, but for S&G...
4) Does anyone have any other brands that they recommend?
 


From what I see on rockauto, they always list them under 2 names and the one is always cheaper, like the $83 timken one.


I trust timken bearings, but who is to say you get a bad one and it only lasts 10 months instead of 4 years ya know.


Its up to you really on what kind of warranty you want, so you will have to pick where you want to buy.
