Best place to buy a wheel bearing

I need to replace a front wheel bearing in my Yellow SVX....where is the best place to get it?
Low price, and quick shipping preferred....
And if anyone has the part # for the front wheel bearing and seals, that's be nice too

That was fast

I'll try a local (2 hours away) dealer tomorrow, as they deliver to my work place for free....and usually give me good prices, hopefully they will have them in stock...

Red face Re: Best place to buy a wheel bearing

Nice! I would have to agree, I need to get my SVX the front wheel bearings too, thinking about replacing all four. I got the two rear ones already and it looks like the listing to your link is over. Can anyone tell me where I can get the front wheel bearing replacement (part #) and maybe the spacers for the front too (if needed for the front set), and spacers for the rear set (which I don't have yet)? I know the rear bearings definitely need replacing so I'm assuming changing the front ones too wouldn't be a bad idea...

Check their Ebay store.

Front and rear are different. What do you mean by "spacers"? All you need is the bearing set which includes 2 bearings and the housing (for one wheel) and an inner and outer seal.

On seals, recommend buying Subaru OEM as some aftermarket seals have not been a precise fit.

You are correct for the rear bearing, but the fronts are as indicated in my link.

For sure. You think these will go on my '92 no problem, or do I need to get extras to make them fit right? Also about the seals... think you could hook me up with a link to get those too? Thanks!
Oh and I just got a phone call from the rear bearing guy, great news! for one rear set of the NTN bearing is only $36, saaaaweeeeet.
