Re: TOY: Birfield Joint or Hub

FWIW,

 wheel bearing can be had at NAPA, cheaper than the dealer, AND they carry
to lines of bearings, cheap ones made in China, and the KOYO brand made in
Japan,  spend the extra for the KOYO, they are MUCH better and last MUCH
longer.

 When I did a friends truck for him, he bought the cheap ones, and well,
they even look cheap.

Another friend bought the good ones, and they are exact replacement for the
factory bearings.  ( about $35- $40 a wheel for the pair, inner comes with
race, outer you have to buy the race.
