any auto parts store will carry the wheel bearing. As for installation, if it's a press-on bearing, you'll need to have a shop do the work.

Auto parts stores used to carry those things. Try the autoparts store first. If they don't have it, you can remove the old bearing and bring it in to a bearing distributer's customer service desk. They probably carry them.

If all else fails, go to the Honda dealer parts department. The bearing will cost more, ($50?) but you will probabaly get the right part the first time.

Replacing the front wheel bearing requires removing the wheel, then the brake caliper must be lossened and relocated, then remove the brake rotor. Then you must remove the wheel hub, which requires a large metric socket that most shade tree mechanics don't have.

This will expose the bearing. The bearing must be pulled from the hub using a bearing puller. Then replaced.

When you put everything back together, make sure you get the torque settings right, especially the nut that holds the wheel hub in place.Where can i buy a replacement wheel bearing for a 2001 honda civic? and how much do they cost?
This bearing must be pressed out, and the new one in, with special service tools. Your cheapest option is to grab a complete steering knuckle from a salvage yard. Try to be sure the car wasn't hit on that side and spin the hub briskly while holding the knuckle: if you hear/feel grinding, the bearing's no good. If you're handy, you can swap the knuckle yourself. Just be sure to torque the axle nut correctly, or you'll harm the bearing. Get a wheel alignment afterward.Where can i buy a replacement wheel bearing for a 2001 honda civic? and how much do they cost?
