OK guys, so which one is it? You have me more confused now. I understand that anything a mechanic does later will require removing the caliper and rotor. However, if I can save the wheel bearing job for later and just do the brakes now I would be happy. Besides, any time I've tried to save money by having a mechanic do two or three jobs in one, it has never worked out. They just go to their time schedule book and charge for each individual job.
