My hub is worn out and I can't find a replacement other than a $150.00 one? Is there another car I can source one from? I have a 1996 gt. I appreciate the help in advance!!!

Thanks for the speedy response guys. I hear you on the new qatar but man I cringe at the thought of $155.00 out the door. Being that I am currently spending $250 a week in gas I really need my car back and the $155 is a bargain. Never hurts to weigh options though.

Yeah.. both hubs on the race care were bad when we tried to press in new bearings, I found one on Ebay, brand new, open box... the other I had to buy from Toyota ($150). Then the guys at the autoshop laughed off the crappy no brand bearings I sourced from the internet, so I ended up getting Timkens.... It was a very expensive repair overall. Do yourself a favor though, and get a good bearing (i.e. Timken) it will last longer and your hub will last longer as a result. Good luck with whatever you decide to do. -------------------- -Mike
