What do wheel bearings cost for our trucks?

[chrisheltra]

The reason I ask is because the guy at Advanced Auto tried to sell me some $200 wheel bearing hub assemblies. That just didnt compute with me so I figured Id hold off and ask people who knew instead.

This is what he tried to sell me

In the description it says its for a 4X4.

Im used to with my old chevy just getting bearings and races and it would cost me about $60. Is that not the case for out trucks or is the guy at AA just an idiot?

Don't know what your buying them for but I don't think they will fit your truck.

Hubs can cost anywhere from 60 to 300 (I worked at Napa for 5 years, Ive sold several) I dont recall ever selling one for a Lightning so I am not fimiliar with how they are built...if it comes as a hub assembly only or if you can simply change the bearings in the hub.

[BAD BOB]

your truck should have just the basic inner and outer bearing that is packed with grease. And yes the 4wd have the hub bearings but that should be incorrect for your 2wd

The hubs are showing for 4wd. There are bearings there as well.

We got just the bearings at work the inner and outers for the front 8 bucks a piece and the rear ones depend upon if you have the 8.8 or 9.75 ring gear these all are for the 2wd lighting

[chrisheltra]

Well I dont think Ill bee driving out to JI for bearings can you post up the P/n for the fron inner and outer bearing and seals so I can just go to the local one?

[soccerspike15]

A12 are inners
A18 are outers
6408 are you rears for an 8.8 ring gear

[chrisheltra]

Thanks I appreciate the help.

L's have 9.75 rears.

[chrisheltra]

I was told on another board that I wont need to change the rears unless its leaking. So just front for me.
