    My dealings with Danlp6 (lengthy post)

    if you cannot afford to pay for a refurb

    yeah dude, you can buy the bits seperately, but you have to have the barings pushed into the discs !! so if you were to buy the discs from motorplace, you need to buy barings as well, then have some garage push them in,

    Front Wheel Bearing

    i'd take the hub back to the garage and see if they have the old bearing, to compare it, pribably have to buy another bearing now as they probably won't be able to pull it out without breaking it
