J Posted April 24, 2006 Report Posted April 24, 2006 How much did ya'll pay for your new hubs? I am going to be doing them at the end of the summer, don't ask why. Just wondering how much ya'll paid? Quote
SigEpCutlass Posted April 24, 2006 Report Posted April 24, 2006 Michigan winters rusted them to hell? Let me know if you find them online cheap anywhere. It's one of those things I should probably invest in too. Quote
Guest donkeykongrape Posted April 24, 2006 Report Posted April 24, 2006 If you're talking about the hub/wheel bearing assembly, Advance auto parts had them for $100 or so when i changed mine a few weeks ago... Quote

Yeah, I paid $90 per hub IIRC. Ohh! I think it's cheaper if it doesn't have ABS, so your in luck Jay! Quote
skiiirt Posted April 24, 2006 Report Posted April 24, 2006 I paid $25 on ebay (+30 to ship ) And locally I paid about $80 (CAD) Quote
Guest donkeykongrape Posted April 24, 2006 Report Posted April 24, 2006 someone PLEASE tell me, WHY did GM make the bearings non-serviceable? the hubs themselves NEVER go bad, only the bearings inside them do...therefore they should have designed them so you can take them out and replace them for maybe $3.00 tops :evil: :evil: Quote

That would have been toooo easy! If i can find them for $40 each i'll be happy as hell stupid question, but do they come with new bolts? Quote
dakiln Posted April 26, 2006 Report Posted April 26, 2006 Only one reason they are designed as a sealed assembly. It is to control the quality of the grease used and to keep water, road salt, etc.... from getting to the bearings. One of the engineers I work with was here at Delphi Chassis when they designed them. It makes sense as far as quality control but the problem is like you guys said price and throwing all of the shit into the dump when there is nothing wrong with the hub itself, just the bearings.

5speedz34 Posted May 3, 2006 Report Posted May 3, 2006 why do tie rods come with new hardware? Yeah, good question, but its one nut compared to 4 bolts. I don't know, I guess maybe since I replaced hubs I think that way. Are you worried they are going to break off like that GP at PartsGalore? Quote
