    Anyone know of a good source for a complete hub/wheel bearing assembly for an ‘03 Pre-Runner?

    I don’t have a press and would rather just swap out the whole thing and be done with it.

    I’ve come across a few online for ‘05 and up, but not for ‘03. And the two sources I’ve seen here in the forums seem to no longer have accounts here.

    Thanks

    Welcome to TacomaWorld
    05 and newer are bolt on.
    04 and older require bearing press out and in, not sold as a bolt on option.

    Around $26,000 worth of unleaded in the fuel tank.
    A machine shop would probably charge $50 a side to press the bearings in. You have to pull the steering knuckle out anyway.

    You could always just get knuckle assemblies new or used.
