Ya no way I was going to pay that price 
I did check rock auto and grabbed a TIMKEN.
Won't be able to repack since I don't have a garage or tools at the moment
Should be ok to just get me by and to work.
Since it'll be maybe a week or 2 before I get it installed... Any tips on making sure my current one lasts? It's only getting audible at 45mph+ and like I said, louder on right hand turns, quiet on left.

I dissembled and repacked 2 hubs on the kitchen island the other night... in front of the wife. Only need a hammer, 3 pennies and a decent sized flat blade screwdriver.

I have 4 of these sitting in my garage. I am planning on rebuilding them one day, but could mail one down to you for way cheap if you want it.
but the timken was ordered already. I just need to put it in and be able to get to work without noise/busted bearing...

Got busy this morning to try and install the cops setup I've had for well over a year. Whomever designed that bracket for the coilpacks should suffer the bites of a thousand fleas.
Went to reinstall the driveshaft and discovered the bearings on both ends are almost completely shot. Nothing like a month long clutch swap.

I clicked on shuiend's link above and since I am sitting in Lima, Peru the Ebay listing came up in Spanish. Damn technology is going to kill us all? Or should I worry that I am being followed?

New... issue. 
Randomly my car is going very lean briefly for a few seconds. When it happens I let off the gas to engage decel fuel cut and it seems to fix it. Is my pump dying? Are one of my Five-O injectors going fubar? The motor still sorta runs just very lean during this time...
When it happened this morning on my way to work, 3k rpm, out of boost & cruising, had 14.7 or so AFR oscilating

When it occurs.. it jumps to 19, 20... and the motor sounds weird.
