Wheel bearing problem - local prices
My driver’s side wheel bearing is totally dead – that’s a bad news №1 , the local price of AC Delco WB is around $380 and need to wait it for 3 weeks – that’s a bad news №2 . Anybody knows what kind of manufacturer is BCA and what about WBs «made in Taiwan» (It will cost me around $175)?

Thanks for help. I visited SO site and I saw what they offered. It’s a pretty attractive price $84.95 for WB. I whish I can buy it but I’m afraid it’s beyond the reach of me. I guess I should make $380 hole in my budget to buy AC Delco WB. It is a pity because I’m not impressed AC Delco quality (I use its front shock absorbers for less then year and already got corrosion on its rods).

I recognize the BCA brand ,but I can not attest to the quality. I want to say it should be good , but I am not sure.
What about giving that less expensive unit a try? Does it carry a warranty? At half the price it might be worth a shot.
I paid $200 for the last one that I bought through NAPA. I have not priced the AC Delco to compare the difference.
As far as I know we do not have any other members from the Russian Federation, so local information may be hard to come by. Perhaps you could ask a local shop about your options? They might be able to recommend a brand or another option.

Lucky you guys. You free to choose any manufacturer you like. Here we have few «grey» sellers who ask price so high he wants. I think there is some person who fly to US and buy parts we need in nearest store. Something like that. So I’m not ready to pay double price… yet. However, I think I will be soon – I need my truck. When somebody of you will get some Russian car, I guess he will face similar problems.
While yesterday my server was «not found» I made couple phone calls and I get luck – I find BCA WB for $250. Now I should see that store, prepay half-price and wait my WB for 10 days. So that’s a deal.
