Price for swivel hub seal change

[Matty13]

Hey guys. Just wondering what a rough price would be to replace all the seals in the front hubs. I've been quoted $440. Anyone know if this is a good price or am I getting ripped off. Cheers

I guess it doesn't sound too bad because I think the seal kit is around $200.

That's both the swivel hubs your talking about?

[Winnie]

Yeah that's a very good price if for both sides

Yeah that's the price for both sides. All the seals no bearings tho.

Buy the overhaul kit a manual and a slab and go for it '
if you have the tools etc, what area you in????

[Matty13]

I was thinking of doing it but don't know much about that. I'm in Picton. How hard is it ?

[Winnie]

I did mine today with the help of some mates who knew what they were doing. Turns out I would've been okay by myself just lacked confidence. All pretty straight forward if you remember which way everything goes

How could you lack confidence Chris???

Not a hard job just messy and it helps if you have a seal driver kit, picked up on ebay for about $30 and makes the job much easier.

Lay everything out in a line as you pull it apart so you remember the order it all goes back together.

Because I hadn't had an VBs by then hahahaha

I did mine on my old MK plus all the bearings at the same time.

Put a day aside - have plenty of paper / rags on hand as its very messy.

Just take not on what bits go where and re - assemble the same.
