Wheel bearings
Hey guys, We're complete newbies and in need of some help...! Could you give us a global idea what it costs to change both front end bearings... (having a bit of trouble with a local garage), and rearrange the brakes so that they don't give too much play in the brake pedal. More so, do beaings have ...
