i have replaced all 4 of my hubs.. i will tell you that the front is not easy task. make sure in your purchase that you got bot hinner and outer hubs. i made that mistake and i had to go back and buy the inner part afterwards. but again removing old inner and outer hubs are aa real pain in the ass if your doing it in your driveway... good luck and if you have any questions shoot me a pm. btw if you do oneside you should do the other too

Twisted, Do you mean inner and outer bearings? I have never heard of an inner and outer hub.

For other folks, I purchased the hub assembly from Rockauto.com. Quick ship and it was $140 plus shipping so it came out to about $162 shipped. I haven't installed it yet as I don't have a garage and it has been cold in New England. I have a '97 XLT.
