Brilliance H230 Rear Wheel Hub – Part No.: 4296051

Let’s keep it simple—this isn’t just a “metal disc” on your Brilliance H230’s rear wheels. It’s the critical link between the rear axle, brakes, and wheel that keeps the car moving smoothly and safely: a durable, load-bearing unit made of high-strength cast iron or aluminum alloy (both resist heavy pressure and corrosion), with a built-in bearing race, brake component mounting face, and pre-drilled bolt holes for the wheel. Mounted directly on the H230’s rear axle—connecting the axle shaft to the rear wheel and brake drum/disc—it acts like a “central hub” for the rear wheel system. Without it, the rear wheel would have no stable base to attach to, leading to wobbly driving, uneven tire wear, or even brake failure.

This rear wheel hub is exclusive to Brilliance H230—always check your vehicle’s VIN to confirm fitment! It’s tailored to the H230’s rear chassis specs: its inner bore matches the rear axle’s diameter (no loose movement), its brake mounting face aligns perfectly with the H230’s rear brake drum or disc (ensures even braking), and its wheel bolt holes match the H230’s tire bolt pattern (no forced installation). Grab a generic hub or one for other models? You’ll run into trouble: wrong bore size (won’t fit the axle), mismatched bolt holes (can’t attach the wheel), or weak material (cracks under the H230’s weight).

1. Core Jobs: Support Weight, Transfer Power & Enable Braking

As a non-negotiable part of the H230’s rear chassis, it does three key jobs to keep the car roadworthy:

Bear the H230’s rear weight: The hub carries a large portion of the vehicle’s weight (especially when loaded with passengers or cargo) and distributes it evenly to the rear wheel. This prevents the rear axle from bending and keeps the wheel aligned straight during driving.

Transfer power to the rear wheel: For the H230’s rear-wheel-drive (or front-wheel-drive with rear support) setup, the hub connects to the axle shaft. When the engine sends power to the rear axle, the hub spins with the shaft—turning the rear wheel and moving the car forward.

Secure rear brake components: The hub’s flat mounting face holds the H230’s rear brake drum (or disc, if equipped). When you press the brake pedal, the brake shoes/pads clamp onto the drum/disc (attached to the hub), which slows the hub—and thus the rear wheel—bringing the car to a stop.

This 4296051 rear wheel hub only fits Brilliance H230—wrong fit means unsafe driving:

Fits These: All Brilliance H230 variants (matches rear axle diameter, brake component type, and wheel bolt pattern—confirm with VIN).

Won’t Fit These:

Other Brilliance models: Like H220, H330, or V3—different rear axle sizes, brake designs, or bolt patterns (hub can’t attach or work).

Non-Brilliance vehicles: Even if the hub looks similar, their axle bore and wheel bolt holes differ (no functional fit; may damage the rear axle).

H230 with modified rear chassis: Aftermarket rear axle swaps or big-brake kits change the hub’s required specs—original hub won’t fit (leaves gaps or blocks brakes).

Installation & Upkeep (Pros Only—Safety Depends On It!)

Installation: Must Be Done by Certified Technicians

Replacing this hub requires precision—DIY risks wheel detachment or brake failure:

Prep: Safely lift the H230, remove the rear wheel and brake drum/disc, then disconnect the rear axle nut (using a torque wrench to avoid damaging the axle).

Remove old hub: Techs pull the old hub off the rear axle (clean rust from the axle first—rust causes sticking), then inspect the axle and wheel bearing for damage (replace the bearing if worn).

Install new hub: They press a new wheel bearing into 4296051 (if not pre-installed), slide the hub onto the rear axle, tighten the axle nut to Brilliance’s torque specs, then reattach the brake drum/disc and rear wheel.

Test: They spin the rear wheel to check for smooth movement (no wobble), then test drive to ensure no brake vibration or uneven tire wear—confirming the hub works with the H230’s rear system.

Maintenance: Key Checks to Avoid Breakdowns

Inspect for play yearly: Jack up the H230 and wiggle the rear wheel—if there’s “play” (side-to-side movement), the hub’s bearing is worn (replace the hub immediately).

Check for rust or cracks: Look for rust on the hub’s bearing race or small cracks on the mounting face—rust causes friction, and cracks lead to hub failure.

Service with wheel bearing: Replace the hub when the wheel bearing wears out (they work together—old bearings damage new hubs).

Avoid overloading the H230: Don’t carry more weight than the H230’s maximum load capacity—excess weight bends the hub and shortens its life.

Summary: Brilliance H230 Rear Wheel Hub (4296051)

Exclusive to Brilliance H230 (confirm VIN for fitment), this hub is a durable, load-bearing unit made of high-strength cast iron or aluminum alloy. It has a built-in bearing race, flat brake mounting face, and pre-drilled wheel bolt holes, mounted on the H230’s rear axle to link the axle, brakes, and rear wheel.

Key roles: Bear the H230’s rear weight (distributes evenly to avoid axle bending); transfer power from the rear axle to spin the wheel; secure rear brake drums/discs (enables smooth braking by keeping brakes aligned).

It fits all H230 variants but not other Brilliance models (e.g., H220, H330), non-Brilliance vehicles, or H230 with modified rear chassis.

Professional installation is required (involves removing wheels/brakes, pressing in bearings, torque-tightening axle nuts). Maintenance: Inspect yearly for wheel play/rust/cracks, replace with wheel bearings, and avoid overloading. Original parts ensure proper fit, safe weight support, and reliable braking.
