Sorry for the double post, but the suspension forum doesn't get much traction.
So my wheel bearings all seem to be going out in sequence. My right front last year, my left front a few months ago, and now I can wobble the right rear a little bit.
I took a look at the service manual and parts catalog and the rears come as an assembly, G14V-26-15XB. They are $123 OEM online, and are actually listed as MPV V6 rear hubs. So if I look at the parts stores like Autozone for the MPV I can find them for as low as $70 each. So first question, has anyone gone this route to save some cash and how did that work out? I like to stay OEM if it isn't too much more, but over $50 per side is a good chunk of change.
Second question is, what tool works best for removing the hub from the rear spindle? The service manual doesn't mention any SST for it, so it shouldn't be too bad, but I am sure there is a puller that would make it go a lot easier.
