I'm not sure if you have advance auto parts near you in PA, but I purchased 4 wheel hubs online for 126.99 then I used a 40 off coupon code. They are moog hubs with a 3 year warranty, I had to do 4 separate orders to discount each hub. Coupon code TRT41, or just google "advance auto parts coupon" and look on retailmenot

Hi

I have a NOS Acdelco on the right rear that i fitted on the weekend, there is a Timken one coming from USA to Australia for the left hand rear side (slow postal service).

I could not find another acdelco one at a reasonable price.

Don't forget you need to torque the spindle with wheel of the ground. you need a 36mm socket and a 5 foot long pipe to remove the half shaft spindle nut.

The manual shows 164 foot pounds however some recommend 175foot pounds.

Is a great idea to replace the half shaft universal joints while doing the hub bearings.

I have tapered roller bearing rear hubs in my car. I got them from these guys (their part number is 513020HD, which they say is made by SKF):
