I need a front wheel bearing and need to know if I can replace JUST the wheel bearings and not the entire hub assembly?

I have a 2005 4x4 and need to know where I can get a good price. I see the hub assemblies on Ebay for around $50. Are these any good? Would prefer to just get the bearings and have them pressed in or whatever is required. This way I could afford to do all 4 at the same time so I know my vehicle is road worthy.

I live in Ecuador and parts are too expensive here so I will be ordering these from the US. However - shipping is expensive [$4/lb] so I need to hold the weight down. Labor here is cheap but parts are sky high.

Looking forward to hear back from you guys.
 






I've not known anyone to do just the bearings. Plenty of people seam to buy the $50 hubs. Just know you get what you pay for. If all four aren't bad, do one or two at a time and get the better ones.
