I contacted the ebay sell as well and they guarantee they are authentic Timken wheel bearing hubs. That's one heck of a deal since normally they cost about $120 a piece..

Yet another ebay selling I wouldn't buy from. The picture and represent their product as Timken when they are not.

I have ordered 2 hub bearings, being shipped today right too my house. I will let you know how things turn out, the parts company e-mailed back and noted that these are Timken original parts with full 1 year warranty. Same part number used by various parts companies that I called, 513084 Timken #.
130.00 taxes in, shipping included for 2 hubs. should have them for tuesday or wednesday.

got my hubs yesterday, Timken's they are. ordered them on friday the 13th, got them on tuesday the 17. [monday was a holiday] 130.00 for 2 hubs delivered to my door. [Canadian funds] Have installed the driver side already and at the same time installing new axle shaft u-joints. D/side hub fit and finish is excellent, service was excellent.[all questions answered] going to install p/side one tonight. just thought i'd let you others out there know about this, no problems at all with buying through this parts place. check my link and see what they have to offer.

Where did you purchase them from? If it was from Etopline the email I got from them was the bearings were not Timken they only used a pic from another site and the hub was made in canada and the bearing is made by Moteq which is a Canadian company. At least that is what they told me via email.
