National bearings are good stuff. It is likely a Timken bearing in a national box. National and Timken often buy and rebox from eachother. Either way it's good stuff. If it's a hub and bearing assembly it's not to bad to do. If it's just the bearing it requires a press or very precise beating with a big hammer on a solid concrete floor. If your working on gravel on your knees your better off paying the $140. IMO

Its just the bearing,and yes it is a bit more then I can do in the driveway.Also time constraints as with most of us life is busy.

Dont get me wrong I totally prefer DIY but sometimes you gotta get a pro to do the job for whatever reason it may be.
