Hey guys I bought a 2002 Dakota a year ago and I have been lurking around this forum for awhile. I have recently found that my right front wheel bearing has gone bad and I'm going to be replacing it myself along with new shocks and pads. My question is about where I should get my wheel hub assembly from. Orielly wants something like $170 but I found it online from several sites for much cheaper but I was worried about the quality as it is an important part. Can you guys recommend any sites that I could find this part at that is good quality but a better price than a box store? Thanks

 

Just saw the post about rock auto seems like a good spot. Sorry I didn't search first lol I was posting from my mobile.

 

I got mine on ebay last year for 67.00 shipped. They all said I would be replacing it in about 500 miles but 10k later and still tight as day 1 this is with lots of hard driving and a lot of offroading in rocky bumpy terrain. Its already paid for itself so I am completely happy.

 

Timken is a well-respected name and not a bad price on rockauto $75 apiece.

Im not sure about ebay but dodgeramguy85 said its ok.

 

I got National brand hubs from Advance. I used one of the Advance online discount code, did 2 separate transactions and saved $80.00 on the pair. That was back in March and so far I have not had any trouble with them at all.

If you have the time to wait for shipping, Timken is said to be the best, and Rock Auto does have a good price on them. My OEM hubs were Timken, they lasted 145,000 miles.

I got a front hub from rock auto. Great quality, cheap and it's been fine since.

 

We dont have National brand in Arizona that I know of sounds like you get some great deals from them.
