reg:
ok.  so my wheel berings went out on the yj.  advanced said they could only sell me a hub assembly at 170 DOLLARS!!!!  PER SIDE!  this has to be wrong.  didn't have time to go to AZ.  Is this correct?!  if it is I'll be salvaging the bearings off the spare axle then.

Seabee_BUC:
WOW!! I'd check around....Does it make better sense to replace the whole assembly while its apart??? I've never changed Wheel Bearings....

reg:
the assembly doesn't wear.  it's cast iron for the most part.  only the bearing really move.

Axle:
That has got to be wrong.  A bearing is a bearing is a bearing...  Try Bumper to Bumper, AZ, and Napa.  Look at a Chiltons and it should give you the part number you need.  You can also try Quadrarape, at least to find the part.  They have IPB's of the axle's in thier mags and online under "replacement parts". 

albsvx:
you talkin' fronts?

front wheel bearings on the Dana 30 are a sealed hub unit, the entire unit must be replaced, there's no serviceable bearings.

$170 isn't a bad price for local.  I've gotten them on ebay in the past for around $100
