    I installed Timken a year ago and have had no problems. Since labor is expensive, i would spend a little more money for better parts.

    Sometimes, the cheaper bearings only come with the caged bearings and maybe the inner race. They expect you to re-use the races since they are pressed in. That's never a good idea. Make sure you are getting a complete bearing whenever you order (go ahead ... ask me how I know).
