Those one piece hubs are a pain because you can't clean and repack them.

ya couldn't get one matched up from Canada bearing i would think they'd be cheaper

It is a complete hub Scoob, I do not think they can be taken apart to just replace the bearing!

They can come appart but it's not worth the time and effort and you could crack a race pressing in back together. Then you have to save the old seal without damaging it (good luck) so in other words buy the assembly bolt it in and go. But then again that would be to easy for Scooby he would have to make it complicated and spend more money than is needed.

I agree with the cheap ones, I had one on the white one, lasted two weeks an off it went.
