I purchased mine on-line via AutoParts123.com...not sure if they ship outside the U.S. I also found them at ebay motors. Good luck in your search.

If you need another one ebay has them cheap $89.95. OEM Timken Brand. He even ships USPS. I bought 3 from him so far. Here is the link.

Is that what the hubs cost for the rams? At least they cut you a deal.

Not cheap my friend. This week I replaced both front bearings on mine and new rotors and pads all the way around for about $750. I was able to get it all at cost though... good luck try to not substitute price for quality.
