    Anyone know a good shop in the OKC area to press out a hub and old bearing and press in the new?

    I have a driver's side front wheel bearing that needs to be replaced. I have the bearing, rear seal and snap ring.

    Not interested in replacing it yourself?

    If I had a shop press I would definitely do it myself. I've looked locally to buy a cheap press. Just can't justify the expense for a press for a one time thing. Spent the money on the ECGS "tool" to change out the needle bearing. Was happy to pay it cause it was a lifesaver. But now I have a tool that only really does one thing lol.

    Ah, I see, I thought you had a 2010 at first glance. I believe NAPA will still press them for you. That’s where my old man used to take his. Maybe post in a local thread to find people who know your area?

    I have a bearing press you could use sometime. But yeah - I replaced mine a few years ago (before I got the press), and wound up spending like $75/bearing to get them pressed at a shop. It's nearly the same cost to just buy the pre-assembled ones.
