Squeaky noise coming from the outside of 2007 Escalade... what could it be?

Was it front or rear? Mine seems to be the passenger side rear... I looked on AutoZone's page and I can get the front hub assembly but for the rear it only has the wheel bearings that are 29.99.

Timken has the reputation for being one of the best. I've not heard anything about Precision. It all depends on how long the hub lasts without making noise and Timken is known for longevity. Yates will be our Guinea Pig for Precision :D It very well may be a high quality hub as well. I'm confident there are more out there that are good quality than just Timken :)

Mine was front. Front has abs sensor in the bearing I am assuming the rear does not. You lucked out.

I honestly don't know. The only thing I know is it's coming from the rear. I'm not sure if it's both rears but definitely on one side. Will do further investigation today...
