That quote sounds like its for all 4 wheel bearing hubs at 80-90$ a piece or the bearings plus installation. The bearings individually cost 45-60$ a piece

FYI some assemblies don't come with just the bearings alone as in you can't just take the old ones out and press new ones in. Also, the race is usually machined into the hub unit itself making so ya can't just replace the carriage and the bearings. I checked autozone.com (autozone prices) and your friend seems to be on point, $215.98 for the beck/arnley's per wheel (holy crap) and a less ass pounding, or a penny short of $180 per wheel for timken's. (Still, $360 per pair) good luck.

I'm starting to get the notion that it might not even BE the wheel bearings.

I'll probably just end up taking her on up to atlantic to see what they have to say.... either way, i really need to put her up on a lift here soon. The noise that it's making and the cold weather aren't making friends very well.
