    I'm looking for rear hub bearing for my 2013 Gen 3 SE but I can't seem to find consistent review of a decent bearing. Everyone seems like they are willing to tell me anything to get me to buy their brand. Looking to spend less than $200 on one side. Also are both sides the same hib bearing part number? Thanks ahead of time.

    I'm running 49 hub bearings from TRQ Amazon stuff have about 90K on one set. They've already done their jobs and still kicking . 200 but he he . I don't think so most aren't going to make 7 more years. ...

    I saw those TRQ set of (2) hubs on Amazon for $194 now I think. Didn't think they were gonna last but might give them a try.

    I better be cheaper than that $194 they should be about $84 a pop I think that's what I paid the last go around Gen 2 or 3 so I guess it could be $194 with shipping or something don't know and I've got some cheaper ones on another car that's just coming on about 70,000 no problems so I'm waiting for one of these cheap replacements to fail actually but so far so good.

    Timken would be the best, some say they make the Toyota hubs.
    Moog is a good brand. Check the auto parts stores, maybe ebay.
    Do not get the trq ones! They suck! They were decent years ago, but not anymore.
    They only lasted a few thousand miles for me. They are cheap, really cheap. I think
    they forgot to put grease in them.
