[QUOTE="BigTerp, post: 381443, member: 9169"] This. I replaced mine last summer, along with new seals. Was repacking the old ones and noticed some corrosion on the inner bearings on both hubs. I recommend genuine Timken bearings and races. Pretty easy job that I was able to do in about an hour or so. First time ever doing it also. Once I got past the fear of dinging up the new bearings, everything went fine. Knocked out the old bearings with a punch and installed the new ones, first with a piece of 2x4 to get them started. Once they were in past the hub I used a water heater element socket that fit perfect to drive them in the rest of the way. Don't remember where I got mine at, but if you Google your bearing part number you should be able to easily find them. [/QUOTE]
