cost of rear wheel bearing replacement

[AussieZed]

Hi folks, currently looking at a car that needs the rear wheel bearings done.... Any guesses or experience if the likely cost??

 

Any info greatly appreciated.

I've seen a 'premium' rear kit, for one side only on eBay for about $110.

 

Not certain if it has both bearings as 'C4' type. A lot of places will sell a generic kit that only has one C4 bearing in it.

 

EDIT: here's the link http://m.ebay.com.au/itm/361163236692?_mwBanner=1

 

Doesn't look like both are the C4 type, I'm sure there's many who have used them without issue.

Call a bearing shop and and ask for wheel bearings that fit a 240z.

Make sure they quote you Japanese made bearings

Should be about $70 or $80 each kit ( one wheel ) comes with 2 bearings and a seal.

And if you have the hubs out I would expect to pay about $200-250 in labour for a small shop to do them.

Is it a Zed or another make?

Sorry .... 260z 2 seater ... would need to get it done by a mechanic to drive back to Canberra from SE Melbourne.... so fitted cost (and even recommendations for mechanics) would be great ....
