you're looking somewhere in the ball park of 100 bucks for 1 wheel bearing/hub assembly on the front.

$35-$93 and free shipping on orders over $50.

Both myself and a few friends have ordered from them several times. They ship pretty quick.

Don't wail on it.

It might be a good idea to take a Scotch-Brite pad and lightly clean the inside of the knuckle before you put the new one back in as well.

I actually use an air hammer to get it to turn a little and then it comes right out usually. You can also use a bolt. leave one of those three bolts in by only a couple threads, put something solid like an extension between it and the spindle, and use the power steering to push it out.

Just did both of mine this morning. $75 each for the one year ones at Advance. Very easy install. Should only take you an hour to do each side. Might need to use a BFH to get the hub off after you remove the 3 bolts and the axle nut. Clean up all mating surfaces and hardware, use antiseize on hub and bolts. TORQUE everything. 75ft lbs on hub bolts, 175ft lbs on axle nuts. No air on reassembly. While you're there clean up your caliper pins and put some high temp grease on them. Grease your ball joints, axle joints and steering joints while you're at it too.
