Per dealership, it costs $200 plus tax to repack front bearings. It sounds a good deal, what do you guys think? i wanted to do it myself i just couldn't get the cone washers off!

I wouldn't hit the studs directly, you can risk mushrooming the head or buggering up the threads if you're not really careful. Just tab your way around the flange, the vibration from the impact will pop them loose.
Yeah, $200 does seem cheap. Figure hour of labor per side and I doubt it books out at an hour per side.
Cone washers are indeed reuseable.
I like run them under the wire wheel and repaint.
Bronze bushing: no spec. replace when worn out
i was able to repack my front wheel bearings today.. but wasn't able to remove inner bearings. how?
Got my front wheel bearings repacked at Toyota dealership and they charged me only $96. I believe this was for both as the invoice does not specify which side (R or L) and refers to the job as "re-torqued front wheel bearings", as in plural. This was in September of 2011.
Which bearings are you talking about? Bearings just fall off, are you talking about the races?

That doesn't sound like a repack to me. Tightened/checked the adjuster nut, maybe?
