Wheel Bearing Replacement Cost

Anonymous
It looks like one of the front wheel bearings is bad and will need to be replaced. Has anyone had to do this recently? I'm trying to see how much I should expect to pay. I'm in MoCo, thanks!

I paid $500 at Caddie dealer recently. It is mainly labor so a local mechanic might be $350-$400

I replaced mine myself (needed 3). Would’ve cost about $2,000 at the shop. I spent $400 on parts, and it took about a day.

The hardest part is getting the old hub unit out of the suspension knuckle. If you’re lucky, a puller tool will work. If not (I wasn’t) you have to build or buy a “hub blaster” device. I had to, and it worked amazing.

The rest of the job is very easy.
