yea, i got mine at autozone. be sure the inner wheel bearing is bigger than the outer bearing, but thinner. when i got mine, it confused me when i got home cause it seemed like my hub was mssing a bearing. turned out, they just gave me one totally wrong one. got the other one at pep boys. they're about 10-15$ each. oh, and the races (the outer part of the bearing thats right against the inner hub) just don't seem to wanna come out. pep boys couldn't punch it. may have to get it heated and tapped out.
