Source for rear bearings/hubs

Going to replace both rear hubs and wondering if anyone has a recommendation for a replacement. I'm thinking I'd like to stay away from a cheap, Chinese bearing that I'll have to replace again in a year. Any suggestions for reasonably priced ones that will last? Thank you!

My recommendation would be to go with Timken hubs and bearings. I've used them in quite a few applications over the years without any problems.

Ask your local parts store who makes the bearing- it will be right on the box or online info
NAPA tend to carry above average parts, azone carries OE quality and oreillys slightly above OE spec
online- rockauto has a good rep

another ziner just installed a rear hub assembly from autozone with no problem and cost was under 50$, labor by friend 40$

DO suggest OE/dealer park brake shoes if you replace them with this job $30-35,
a few other brands tried by ziner recently= required some grinding to facilitate correct clearance- Clarence~
