Default 05 4wd Front Hub needed

Anyone know a good place to go to purchase 05 2500 4x4 Front hub assembly?

I do a search and mostly get Recalls about stuff, not stores that sell Hub's. Mine is looking loose and Dealer wants $375, local parts store wants $410 (special Order).

So I have read here and there about some going for $250 or so. But I didn't see any store name or person.

Not a warranty item since I have 70k on the ticker.

Thanks.

I checked around the dealer here and local auto parts store. Dealer wanted $ 370, Part stores wanted even more. Hence me asking on our forum. I did search some more and noticed somebody said Napa store. We don't have many here but I did call one. They only wanted around $210 for it. HECK, that beats any prices I have seen. So it has been ordered.

Now, just to do the Power Steering trick and hopefully it will come off this weekend.

Thanks.

Power Steering trick worked great. Took about 2 hours to do 1 hub and replace both front pads.

Dan the gear man didn't have any at this time. Ended up going to Napa and got one for $125. Replaced and all is quiet on the front now. I did use the Power Steering trick where you take the socket and place an extension on it and hold it up against the shock mount or something, then turn the wheels just a little bit to force out the bolt. I switched from side to side to have it slowly come off. Worked great. Thanks.
