Possible wheel bearing(s)

Hi all,
sometimes I get to thinking I'm having the urine taken out about three months ago had the nearside track rod end, the offside stabilisor and the offside front bush on the back axle renewed, now I'm geting a whinning noise on the front nearside front wheel, a sort of clacking-clapping nosie from the front offside.
Went to the dealer stealer and he told me probably front wheel bearing nearside and track rod end offside, I have to go back today so he can put it up on the ramp and have a proper look. If it is the bearings he said it is very exspensive about 600 euros; that plus the track rod end about a grand (euros) and that just seems rather exspensive to me!!
Are the bearings a big job on Rangies then?

Cheers all for any advice

€600 for a wheel bearing, an item that costs around £30 Shocked

The front hub has to be removed which involves removing wheel, caliper, disc, both bottom arms, track rod end, strut, driveshaft, press out old bearing and press in new bearing, then reassemble everything together Thumbs Up

Cheers 47p2 and Duckworths,

So the story so far! front nearside stabilisor knackerd and on the back axle 2 diagonal struts I understand that thier something to do with the back wheel tracking are also shot. plus 2 new tyres on the back.
According to the mechanic 2 new tyres are necessary because the geometry for all 4 wheels can not be properley acheived with the scrubbed tyres (the offside rear tyre is really scrubbed on the inside and the otherside is starting to show the same signs.............and so quite believable really!!, the wheel bearings are all in order he said!!
