So I have run into a little problem, that is my wheel bearings are starting to go. I assume that is what the WAWAWAWAWAWA sounds is when I make a turn. But anyways, I am just hoping I could get some insight to see what everyone's thoughts were for E-Bay products and whether I was getting ripped of or if a product is fake, low/good quality so on and so forth. I have a 1994 GT-Four ST205 chassis and I had to turn to E-Bay UK. Also if anyone knows what I can get domestically that is compatible, I'm all ears!

Anyways I have many options for wheel bearings on E-Bay. I posted all of the links for review. So my question, has anyone purchased off of any of these sellers and if so which ones would be the best quality product?

Thanks in advance!

damn, didn't read your 2nd last post. i would've told you (again) that the front wheel bearings are different. I ran into the same issue last year.
unfortunately, no other toyota (after spending some time searching) shares the same bearings as the front bearings on the ST205.
tcbparts.co.uk is your best bet. it sucks but your cars gonna have to sit for a little while.

Well....lol yup its gonna sit for a little bit so that I can find the right part... However we are going to try to contact NSK who is the original manufacturer of the wheel bearing. We have the original part number so I think that we will be able to track down a cheaper alternative than having to go to TCBPARTS and have expensive shipping from the UK.

Once I have a solution to this issue, I will share for all!!!! Till then stay tuned! (No pun intended lol)
