yeah man I just had both of mine up front changed for $800 grrr, on my 06 with 60,000 miles but atleast I dont feel to bad about mine going that early but I still dont think they should have. I dont even offroad or have big tires and rims jeez. Like the said on here you can prolly get by doing it yourself but I like to only do small jobs. Some would consider this a small job, just depends on who you are and mine wasnt in the shop for those bearings. I just changed my rear pinion seal and was alittle worried about the pinion bearing preload, so I had my mechanic check my rear end and he said it was fine, had to replace my u joints and then said my front wheel bearing were starting to go out, he even put a stethoscope on em to listen for them so Im guessin he was being serious about them starting to go and beens I already had it in the shop I just told him to do it all, but 500 in parts, then 300 in labor took a hit on me.

lucky sob. i also need new tires bad, mine have good tread but the previous owneer neverrrrrr rotated them so they are cupped and messed up so bad, I get vibrations like crazy. even as soon as I bought my truck, at the tire shop they said they wouldnt even recommend putting one of the tires back up front, just to leave it in the back because itll give me such vibration problems. they suck bad

ive only had the truck 5,000 miles and had the tires rotated, balanced and aligned as soon as I got it and they said they were f'd then, then cranked my t bars and gota nother alignment, then like 1,000 miles ago got them rotated and balaced again and another alignment cause I messed with the t bars alil but I already knew my tires were fd then. I didnt realize bad cupped AT's could cause SUCH an awful ride

I can second that. Rock Auto is the best price I've found so far. Lordco wanted $200 per side. I can get both sides on Rock Auto for $315 shipped. And they ship to Canada. Probably doesn't matter to most of you, but it's a big deal to me haha.
