[Vwdiesel] Tie rods/wheel bearings on a Mk2 Jetta

[Marco]

Yes, the entire hub/knuckle assembly is $110 each

Tie rods are $40.

Of course I'll need the 30mm axle nut socket and the 12pt 8mm CV bolt tool too...

$300 for parts, $16 or so for the tools, plus shipping and core charge for the knuckles.

I'm sure my spindles/etc. are all old and worn out so replacing the entire assembly seems like a reasonable step at this point.

Then I would still need to have it all re-aligned, even if I'm super careful to note all the positions on disassembly. 

Cheers,
Marco

Though he said that he could get the whole "bearing assembly" so he
wouldn't need a press. The only way I can think of not needing a press
to replace a wheel bearing is if you're getting the whole hub/knuckle
whatever you call it assembly. That could easily push the price up to
$400...
