If you live in a large metropolitan area or one with a reasonably decent
industrial area you can get bearings quite a bit less expensively by going to
industrial/bearing supply houses. They cater to wholesale sometimes but I've
had great luck with them buying one at a time retail also. It's usually
best to bring the bearing in question with you if possible since that makes
looking it up in their interchange book simpler. From my experience the
prices are usually at least 1/3 to 1/2 better. As an example a tranny
bearing for my Audi was $81 retail... $27 at the industrial bearing place.
Most of them sell all the major players (Timken, SKF, etc.).
