Cost of Getting a Wheel Bearing Done?

[Canadatron]

I'm finally having to get a wheel bearing changed in my Echo, how much should this run if done at a shop? I bought the wheel bearing anticipating doing it myself but I just haven't got the time before needing my car. Anyone got any ideas? I can't see it taking more than an hour of shop time.

I think you've answered your own question. Why not call around and get quotes? I don't see the process taking any more than 2 hrs tops, it should be down in 1 hr. You've already got the part, now you just have to install it right, so all there is left is labor.

What led you to diagnose the wheel bearing?
