Bearings - Where to go?

[cw212010]

Hi all,

I've just moved state side from the UK and as I've mentioned in the past, got my hands on a dirt cheap 04 Limited 4.6. The engine runs great, interior just needed a damn good clean and it's like new.

However, there is a list to work through of faults. The biggest right now is the rear wheel bearings.

Can anyone give me a rough indication of what it'll cost me to have a shop fit two new rear bearings, one new spring, two new rear callipers and possibly two rear upper control arms & two new brake discs.

Obviously I can find prices for the parts which aren't terribly expensive - I just don't want to get ripped off!

Can anyone make a recommendation in northern KY and a little further?

I've always had a good experience at rockauto. Decent prices and excellent part selection.

Prices for fixing things are going to be different depending on what shop you go to. It all depends on their labor rate and how many hours the repairs are supposed to be. Cheaper labor rates don't always mean a better deal. Dealerships will have the highest labor rates so finding a private shop somewhere will be your best bet. Shop around getting price quotes from a few places before you decide.
