Latest source for hub bearings

Searching through some older posts, looks like Timken is the brand to get for hub bearings. At the time, rockauto was the most economical source. Is this still the consensus? If not, please post suggestions on a brand and source.

I have had good luck with National Wheel bearings. I get them at O reilly for 300 a piece. They come with a 1 year warranty.
O reilly switched the line code for national over to Precision.

If you are fortunate to have a industrial bearing supplier near you, go there. Much cheaper to order by brand & size than application. They can measure your old one to determine the correct bearing.

Bill,
Thanks for the suggestion. I called them and they don't carry them.

I bought Timken unit bearings for my 94 at Autozone for $215 a side. I looked at rockauto, but with shipping, I did better at Autozone.
