Unhappy Wheel Bearings????

my rear right bearing is gone, anyone know where i can find a place to get it done, i've gotten ridiculous prices
one shop asked $600 for just one bearing and labour
midas asked $700 for both rears and labour
and $500 from a local shop for the one rear and labour
SHould i replace both rears or just the faulty one?????
my brother just got his done for his 97 ford probe and it only cost him $200.
i just wanna know if i'm getting ripped off and what is a decent price for getting it done???

its super easy to do it yourself....it should take about a couple hours to do it...

just buy the parts from Honda...go to Parkway Honda, if you were a paid member, you'd recieve a members discount on all parts.

crack nuts/lugs...
jack up car
block up car
remove wheels
unblot calipers - move them out of the way
remove disc
take off axle nut
take off bearing
put on new one,
assemble back to together...get a helms manual or one of the pdf's files and check proper torque specs on tightening your axle nut...

and fanny's your aunt!
