I'd say you are lookin at around $100+ for the hub?

Thata a guess!

If it is a wheel bearing..... I had to put both front wheel bearings in my 95 Talon TSi when I had it. Once they start getting into it, they found that some other parts were rusted together and they could not get them apart. I spent almost $800 for the job.

around 100? thats pretty decent...i might as well get both of them done in that case...

I've actually replaced a wheel bearing on a 92' Beretta GTZ by just drilling thru the old one and placing in new casing and bearings...

Any1 know if Stealth's use the same type of bearings? if so i could do it myself

What a freakin bad week for my car...last night i was drivin around town and i checked my car over this morning before going to work and an exhaust tip fell off!!!! FUCK MAN IT LOOKS HORRIBLE NOW:angry:

any1 selling an exhaust tip?

800!!!!!!!!! whoa dude that definately sounds like u took it hard in the ass!:whoa:

It cost me $450 to get my 1 bearing done on my avenger, which uses basically the same platform as the talon.

They are just very expensive on those cars. The part is a dealer part only, and the cheapest I ever found one was $212+taxes. The book time rate is 3.5 hours per side also, so you are looking at a minimum $350 in labour, and $450 in parts for the job, depending on where you go.

Apparently the stealths are cheaper and easier to work on, which is a good thing.
