Wheel bearing replacement cost
for a Toyota Hilux

Replacing a wheel bearing on a Toyota Hilux involves removing the wheel, brake caliper, and hub assembly to press out the old bearing and press in a new one. The cost is typically driven by whether it's a front or rear bearing, the need for a press, and the vehicle's 4WD configuration. Front bearings on 4WD models are more complex and expensive.

Cost breakdown

Parts: ~$40-$120 / Labour: ~$140-$330

What affects the price

2WD vs. 4WD (4WD front hubs are integrated and pricier)
Front vs. Rear axle (front labour is often higher)
Using a complete hub assembly vs. a press-in bearing kit

Can you do it yourself?

Possible with skill — Requires a hydraulic press, large socket set, torque wrench, and knowledge of hub disassembly. Pressing the bearing incorrectly can ruin the new part.

Tips before you pay

Diagnose carefully; a worn bearing sounds like a constant growl that changes with speed.
On 4WD models, consider a pre-assembled hub unit for easier installation, though it costs more.
Always replace the bearing seal and check the CV axle (front) or axle shaft (rear) for wear during the job.
