from what Ive been told, by the time you find out your bearings are bad you will need to replace the hub (housing) also. I tried to change just the bearing on my front hub found out the hub is bad because they're is little play on my wheel in occasional breaking.

LIC is good, or depending on where in the bay area you are. RBMS can't be beat.
