I have a discovery 2 and I'm looking for front wheel bearings in the lower mainland.

A response the other day to the same question:

You should know in advance that Disco 2 hubs are not serviceable and you cannot replace the bearings. You need to purchase a complete assembly with wheel bearing housing, bearings and hub. These run over $100 for no-name brand and over $200 for OE brand.

Wow, that sounds cheap. I got quoted $900 from Alder Auto Parts, and over $600 from British Classics.. online they all seemed over $400. Unless I'm doing it wrong, and that's each.

Yea, I guess with the dollar dropping off the face of the earth, I was a bit low.

$112 plus shipping and import fees for aftermarket.
$270 for OEM ++.
Wholesale is $85 and $240 so that is not a ton of markup.
