How can we know how much you'll be charged when we don't know where you're taking it
Assume £30 per hour labour, x2 hrs = £60
Then add in the cost of a new bearing, genuine Toyota or not ?

Can't remember how much wheel bearings cost, maybe £60 looking at Rogue's website:
www.roguemotorsport.com/forms/Product.aspx?ID=422
Might also be worth checking TCB's prices.
If you happy to pull the hub out yourself, then a local garage will press the old bearing out and new one in for not much £££- my local did it for free.
Either that or a couple hours at whatever rate they charge to do the whole thing

it's a peice of p1ss job if you have a press, i think any garage charging 2 hours for this is taking the mick, took me all of half an hour
bearings are around 60 bucks, you'll be pushed to find one cheaper than that

cheaper to find a good rear hub and swap it over can pick them up for less than the cost of a new bearing.

Then you take the risk of the bearing in the new hub dying in a couple thousand kms

agreed, it's such a simple job that i don't think it's worth the risk getting a used hub, although this would be an option if you didn't have a press
