If you had a > shop do it, can ask how much did it cost... I just had both front wheel bearings replaced on my '89 100Q by my local shop. I don't have the invoice handy, but my rough notes say: $170 each for parts, and about $75 for labor for both. BTW, this not only dropped 20 dB out of my car's cabin, but it made the car handle an order of magnitude better. I thought some of my A-arms or bushings were shot (102K miles); the car was very sloppy-handling. New bearings fixed it right up. -- Andrew L.
