Where can i get a decent price on wheel bearings?

[c-hawk]

I need wheel bearings on my 01. 190,000 on the original part and they are shot. I have looked around and the prices i'm getting are higher then what i've seen most report.

Napa 417 each
carquest 411 each
dealer 308 each
quad4x4 328 each

I thought i had read of people getting them for closer to 200 each. If so, where?

Thanks,

Chris

Chris, it's been a while since I got mine but I paid around $150 if I remember right. Had the passenger side hub go bad. Look around and good luck!

Edit: Be warned though they don't come with new studs or mine didn't.

Um??? Napa around here sells them for $260 + tax. I bought one for my truck this spring and one for Dads truck this summer

Nick,

I looked around on the site and i can only find them listed for half ton trucks. I appreciate the help though.

That's crazy. I was thinking they looked up the wrong part, but then when i called carquest and got almost the exact same price i figured they were just asking that much for them around here.

I had a good friend, Will, call another parts chain locally and his price was something like 360 even with their business discount.

I can't believe the dealer may be my cheapest source. :bang

Are the later then 99 trucks equiped differently? The 8-lug D60 4x4 lugs are on there for 94-99 according to their listing. Didn't know if the 99 limit was just irrelevant as I used to run into that with my camaro all the time (many stores thought the 2000 year was the last year of the ls1 motor lol).

4 wheel abs is one difference, there may be others i'm not aware of.

Thanks!

I just called a bunch more stores...

A different napa - same 417
Autozone - 380
another carquest - 412
advanced auto - 359
pepboys - 199 (but the guy didn't seem to have a clue what he was looking for so i almost doubt it's the right part)

This sucks. LOL

 

[zstroken]

4 wheel ABS was available on 97-99.

I can call the one here in StL if you want, the owner works the counter and has an 01. So he always keeps parts in stock

Hmm, learn something every day. I didn't know that and have never seen it on one of those trucks. Was it just an option?

Here is there number: (314) 487-7272
They have it listed on their website for $335 or $447... Either the price went up or they cut me a hell of a deal last summer.

 

[getblown5.9]

salvos is a chain on here on this side of the big ditch and they had mine in stock for $270 after tax when i needed one.

 

[scottsjeeprolet]

This site has pretty good pricing.

It's listed under the Brake/Wheel hub then Axle bearing hub. Looks like they are $234 for the Timken.
Start soaking the hub with penetrant now. They don't come off easy! Just ask T.J about it!

Prices on bearings have gone up quite a bit over the past year..

If you can't get anywhere with Nick's guy, let me know..
