Has anyone on genvibe done one of these on a awd. The fwd rear looks easy. I just can't believe you have to take the whole suspension apart for this.

Hey Brent. Did you go to the dealer. I couldn't find one at a parts store. Finally found one online by Timken, $155 free ground. The dealer wanted $340 plus shipping. Should be here next week. Anyone here deal with Timken or heard anything, good or bad about them?
