I agree with you rock auto is a great site. Not to take away from this thread and point you to other sites but i came across this site http://www.am-autoparts.com/ when i was looking for hub bearings for my Tahoe and i couldn't beat the price. $95 dollars for two with abs sensors and free shipping.

For comparison purposes what brand did you get? I ordered Timken which were $200 at AutoZone. I got the part for $120 shipped from Rock Auto :waytogo:

My brother bought this set last year 15000 miles a year (He does alot of driving) and no problems so far.

I went with the same set for my tahoe and it is just under a year and no problem what so ever.

In the three and a half years of owning my truck i have changed the front abs sensors twice and at both times with acdelco parts. When the abs sensor gave me the issue again i was upset and couldn't believe it. I really didn't want to spend the money again without trying to figure out why it keeps happening. Speaking to others and doing research i have found some good info that stated it might not be the sensors and it might be the hubs. Going into it without having a definite answer why it happens is when i decided to spend 95 dollars and change it all out. At least i know it cant happen again at least for some time, HAHA
I compared the units to my factory one and you know what i couldn't tell the difference. It rides quiet and smooth. Yes i know the quality is probably not the same but because i spent so much within a year and half i got fed up. I couldn't be any happier.
