Unfortunately, you can't replace the front hub bearings--you have to replace the entire front hub assembly. This is becoming the rule and not the exception in both foreign and domestic later model cars. Gone are the days of simply replacing $10 worth of bearings. You can get a Timken replacement hub from Autozone for about $107.00 (PN: 513090). The hub assemply is held on by four cap screws and is a relatively simple replacement. I would recommend using some Locktite on the cap screws and torque each to the specifications for your vehicle. ERB
