Do we have to buy the bearing and hub seperatly?

Edit: caution: I don't have a Prius c, and what I'm saying here is about gen 1 through the gen 3 liftback.

Toyota uses a one-piece hub/bearing unit in those cars. It is not sold as separate pieces, and isn't even intended to come apart into separate pieces.

I suppose if you are buying aftermarket, the story could be different. From the photos of the parts you have ordered, it does look as if the Dorman part is only the inner hub, the Drivestar part is only a bearing, and you will have to hope that disassembling the original equipment hub/bearing unit will leave you with something this aftermarket bearing and hub will fit in.

But once again, I don't have a c. It's quite possible the c is actually designed to use a separate bearing unit and hub like that.

 

I've only done a rear bearing on our car, wish I could help.

 

In my experience, only if the car's been in a collision or you've got very very high mileage. I've had really good luck with original OEM Toyota bearings. Then again, I'm a if it ain't broke or humming - why fix it, type of person.

 

IMHO; I'd go with a new OEM assembly to avoid future issues. There's many Prius on the road with over 200K miles on the clock and the original OEM bearings still in them.

 

^ I strongly support that. I just replaced a rear bearing in our car, about 5500 miles after I paid somebody else to replace it. He did not use a Toyota part, and it went bad fast.

I used a Toyota part.

 

Ensure that the Dorman hub and Drivestar bearings are compatible with your specific vehicle make and model. From the part numbers, they generally fit a range of vehicles, but confirming they match your car's specifications is crucial. You may need the Wheel bearing seals, Axle nut and Retaining clips or snap rings.
