Got mine at Advance auto parts for about $190 each including tax. Go to gmtruckclub.com and search---there's a great post with pics and step by step instructions. Its pretty basic stuff---hell I could even do it. But, eat your wheaties. Those 22mm bolts holding the calipers and the 15s on the hub are TIGHT. The earlier post is spot -on, you definitely need a breaker bar. I had a clearance problem with the 1/2" drive on the hub bolts and had to use the 3/8" drive. By the time I was done I had busted 2 15mm sockets and 1 ratchet. Good old Sears took 'em back----didn't tell 'em I was using a 3 foot pipe on the ratchet.

Hub bolt is a 35.5 mm but a 1 3/8" will fit great. I used a 3/4" drive socket and big ass breaker bar.

Good luck--
