wheel bearings (hub style) ...how often ?

Aug 01, 2004 2 Replies

Hello all, 99 Camaro V6 owner here:



The car has 43K miles on it, and I'm told it needs both front wheel bearings ($100 each!) replaced.



Anyone else experience this ? I mean, if it were 100K miles, I wouldn't be surprised...



:(


The life span of the bearings is largely depends on where you drive.

True. 43k is a bit premature though....

OP: $100 each sound about right per part at list price level. Joe--ASE Certified Parts Specialist & 10th Ann.Club Tech Director '80 Carousel Red Turbo T/A, 27k orig. '79 "Y89" 400/4 speed 10th Ann.
