I think you can find them cheaper than $160. Maybe even around $90.
New ones make that job go much faster and easier!
Rebuilding is doable, but I have not reassembled the one in the

Re: Repacking and/or Recycling Sealed Wheel Hub/Bearing
It is possable to repack and reassamble them (I have done it, about

find replacements that fit.
