Maybe this is a silly question, but aren't there any Toyota dealerships in Australia? If so, the best one to pick is a dealer location at a Toyota warehouse and distribution point for all of the other dealers (typically one per region of a country).

=we do have toyota dealerships in aus, ofc :P i think what he might be asking is maybe a aftermarket place, that sells cheaper parts than the oem part, oem parts are known for being very pricy. but i predict that you will come to the subject of "quality over price" and to do the job propperly with the correct part.. he may also be looking for used part, but i think that the question needs to be elabourated a bit so we can understand what Alfa_Zulu wants more clearly.

To me, you shouldn't put a used wheel bearing onto a 2000hp-capable driveline that you might be taking up to 200mph. Just mho.

Also, there are aftermarket wheel bearings available. For example:

Caveat: I have not used this product, so please do not consider this as an endorsement. However if anyone has used it, please post here.

Hey mate, I had to replace one of my wheel bearings the other day.

Sinergy Motorsport in adelaide can get them. Check out the website

Got an aftermarket bearing for $180ish. Shipped from Sydney.. so dunno if that would be easier for you to find out where they get em.
