Go to Pete’s Meats for a pastrami sandwich. Nobody beats Pete’s meat (that’s what their t shirts say)

 

Get a 2 scoop Choco Chic ice cream in a waffle cone from the ice cream shop on the alley beside the Place d'Armes

Anyone else notice there is no option for a 2wd Tacoma anymore on the Build your Own for the 2020's?

 

I called my local Toyota dealership to see how much it would cost to replace my front wheel bearings, just to replace the bearings and a couple of seals is $1600. I am not going there. I might try to do my own with the front hub assembly sold on here.
Anyone had good luck with anything from Lordco for hub bearing assemblies?

 

That’s highway robbery. I had to get a local guy do one front assembly and he charged me $500 I believe in total. If I didn’t have to go back up to work the next day I would’ve done it myself and with those full assembly kits it looks pretty simple honestly. I was told that an alignment was a good plan after though just as an FYI.

 

The Toyota garage says it’s 6 hours labour, and around 600 plus for the 2 bearings and seals.
I’m going to look into other options including trying it myself.

 

$1,600 is crazy for just bearing/seal replacement. There must be cheaper options...

 

A small private garage that specializes in toyota trucks said $1000, that’s not as painful.

 

That sounds more reasonable, although it's still a chunk of change.

 

Dam I wish you were in the Toronto area, I would say come on over and we will film it for my Youtube Channel!!!!!!! I did wheel bearings on a friends Ford and that's getting some good views. People seem to like wheel bearing videos

 

What is your YouTube channel?

 

Thanks for the offer! If you were my neighbor I’d be over for sure !
