glad to hear it was a decent price. How people on here do it themselves at home is beyond me!!! I was told it has an odd shape and you need a special tool to get them off. Even Chevy said it is hard to get off and back on, thats why it is SO expensive. I guess these people have this special tool or know what to rent? But considering I was maybe a month away from loosing my front wheels, I guess $499 was a bargain But I keep thinking that it is like 1 car payment,if I bought a new car. so they lasted 9.5 years, I assume that is a long time? But when I saw those bearing in pieces,and they told me it was a few hundred miles away from flying off the car, or worse, I guess it was a 'deal'. Now it is more quite than when I bought it NEW!
