Replace the whole knuckle. You have to press out and press in new bearings. Its more work and costs alot. If you can just find the whole knuckle at a junkyard and swap it on.

It takes 2 minutes if you just bring it to a shop w/ a press.

i wouldnt see why a machine shop would charge more than 50 bucks to press a bearing 4 times? Then you know you arent getting some bunk knuckle from a junk yard.
