[Mk2] [Turbo] how much to supply and fit a rear wheel bearing

[sirrell20004]

how much have you guys payed in the past to get fitted / supplied and fitted 1 rear wheel bearing?

[Baker]

depends on labour, mine was hour and a half, some quote 2 hours.

[sirrell20004]

Yea i know its about 2 hours but, i ment price wise

How can we know how much you'll be charged when we don't know where you're taking it

Assume £30 per hour labour, x2 hrs = £60

Then add in the cost of a new bearing, genuine Toyota or not ?

Can't remember how much wheel bearings cost, maybe £60 looking at Rogue's website:

Might also be worth checking TCB's prices.

If you happy to pull the hub out yourself, then a local garage will press the old bearing out and new one in for not much £££- my local did it for free.

Either that or a couple hours at whatever rate they charge to do the whole thing

it's a peice of p1ss job if you have a press, i think any garage charging 2 hours for this is taking the mick, took me all of half an hour

bearings are around 60 bucks, you'll be pushed to find one cheaper than that

[alanmr2turbo]

cheaper to find a good rear hub and swap it over can pick them up for less than the cost of a new bearing.

Then you take the risk of the bearing in the new hub dying in a couple thousand kms

agreed, it's such a simple job that i don't think it's worth the risk getting a used hub, although this would be an option if you didn't have a press

Hi All
