    I have a front wheel vibration that comes from the hub part. When a
    curb is hitten what is the part that usually bend, is it the hub or
    bearing or spindle? Is it something hard to take off the hub on an
    Elantra 2000?

    Thanks.

    When you hit a curb, it is usually the wheel that gets damaged. Look at the
    wheel first. Next in line would be control arms. Last would be hubs. It
    would be difficult under most circumstances to damage a hub by hitting a
    curb.

    Have the tire rebalanced too , sometimes when you hit a curb a wheel
    weight may get knocked off .
