    Be careful, there are many cheap rear hubs that may not last a year. Plus I would not buy used oem. Consider Timken or OEM.

    These parts were used on my v, a hatchback had different part numbers.

    Is Timken Toyota’s supplier, or it’s not known for sure, but suspected?

    I can tell you the parts look identical even to the welds although they have different numbers stamped in the same font. Timkens are not cheap but better than the dealer with their markup. One rear wore out at 250k miles, changed both rear hubs and the rear pads for the first time. Had one front hub dealer changed around 50k miles with a speed sensor "foreign object" code, not worn bearing on that one.

    Have you tried Rock Auto yet?

    The NSKs are made by AISIN and are $95 each.

    Hub bearing assemblies are not very good candidate parts to buy used, because that would require removing them from the vehicle where they were, and there are no easy provisions for removing them without damage to the bearings.

    Such removal would require applying force only to the stationary flange, and not applying any force through the bearing. But if you look up a sample of threads here on PriusChat by people removing these hubs, you see most often methods being used that will end or shorten the life of the bearing.

    Maybe if someone had a pair removed from an extremely clean Gen 3 used in an area that never sees road salt or damp weather.
