Default front wheel hub bearing

So at 78k on my 08 H3 adventure I need to replace both wheel hub bearings. The shop quoted me a price at 350 each before labor. I was able to find 2 online from a place called prime choice for 250 for 2!! When it comes to something like a wheel bearing am I cheaping out? I just dont know if I am getting burned by shop or if what I found online is more of a fair price. Any input greatly appreciated.

go with what you can afford. I buy mine from China only because the design is such crap you will have to replace them in 80k again anyway. Other option is to buy from Orielys auto parts as they have a lifetime warranty. It would be so awesome if they made a manual locking hub for the H3 but dont think thats available due to AWD. Gas Mileage savings for sure !!!

The shop quoted you $350.00 each?



If you can do it yourself, buy whatever, as long as the price is right

Am auto has them cheaper

You can get 5 for the price you were quoted for 1
