You can always go to the dealer if they are still available. Part number for bearing MB303865. Price should be around $50.00 a pc. Oil seal part number is MB573309. Those are about $7.00 each.

I just ordered rear wheel bearings from rock auto.

Beck Arnley brand.

The bearings are Koyo bearings... IDENTICAL to what my buddy payed much more for with his JNZ order. His came in a mitsu box, and was the same exact bearing.

i had no problems getting mine from my local oreilly's.

i always have them check to see what other year parts are the same, so i know for future if something isnt available, that i can grab stuff from another year /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Im going to trek down this road here in a bit, so I will bring this back from the dead.

What all is needed, and inner and outer and the oil seal correct? I figure this is so much cheaper to do myself then to have a shop do all the work. I dont have a press so, that is the only thing I need a shop to do...

Thanks,

Diego

First there ia no inner and outter it is one bearing that gets pressed into the hub and then the spindal gets pressed into the bearing after its seated in the hub.

sorry for the noob question about this, but i just wanted to verify that to replace the bearing in one front corner, it is just one order of a bearing #303865, and one oil seal? I'm a little confused because in the catalog there are other options for inner as well, or is it some others sell in two pieces? I always thought there were inner and outer as well, but i've never done bearing jobs in my life.

I just did this a few weeks ago. one bearing, but inner and outer seals for the front. if it says inner and outer bearing in a catalog and it looks real cheap, it may be referring to the seals. i was able to buy a timken front bearing at autozone for only $35 btw.

There are inner and outer bearings in the rear. Also two seals, but the outer is more of a shield, and I have never needed to change an outer seal.
