#1: Average price for rear bearing? Author: mcfly666, Location: DevonPosted: Sun Mar 27, 2011 10:49 am ---- What would be the going rate to repalace a rear arm bearing, or a complete axel from the scrappy?
I think mine has gone, got a little play in the rear off side and it makes one hell of a racket at 50.
#2: Re: Average price for rear bearing? Author: benashley, Location: cornwallPosted: Sun Mar 27, 2011 11:02 am ---- Second hand axles go for between £100-£200, Recon ones are around £400-£450. I wouldnt even bother going down the bearing replacment route.
Where in devon are you based? I can change one in about 1.5-2 hours and we charge about £40 an hour labour.
#3: Re: Average price for rear bearing? Author: mcfly666, Location: DevonPosted: Mon Mar 28, 2011 3:55 pm ---- Thanks for the offer mate, but ill pop one on myself, though I am tempted by this guide here
Whats the worse that can happen?
#4: Re: Average price for rear bearing? Author: Seabook, Posted: Tue Mar 29, 2011 1:37 am ---- the bearing would could around 50-80.
but if the main shaft is damanged then you can't just replace the bearing because it won't work./
#5: Re: Average price for rear bearing? Author: mcfly666, Location: DevonPosted: Tue Mar 29, 2011 3:32 am ---- Why put "because" in red matie, I can read you know besides you dont know what the condition the stub pin is in until you take it off...
Good little learning experience to me, as good as lowering a car with a tiny bit more work :/

Little tap tbh, they come off really easy
Then chisel on the end of the bearing (both come out from either end)
Movement

#16: Re: Average price for rear bearing? Author: Seabook, Posted: Tue Mar 29, 2011 1:07 pm ---- one arm off already, easier than i though, and definitely easier than do the torsion bar

If you have rear discs, use a bolt from the caliber, if not you could try a front caliper bolt.

M12 1.5thread bolt
#22: Re: Average price for rear bearing? Author: mcfly666, Location: DevonPosted: Wed Mar 30, 2011 9:52 am ---- thanks guys, got a M12 from bnq and it fitted (blind luck) job is done now, stub pin wasnt too bad after a good sand and wire brushing with a dremel. hardes part was banging the bearing in, the torsion bar would not move so I had to free it up from the other side and do the work on the trailing arm with the torsion bar fapping around :/
Who knows how long it will last:P
#23: Re: Average price for rear bearing? Author: Seabook, Posted: Wed Mar 30, 2011 4:14 pm ---- how did you bang in the bearing?
i am still removing the left overbit inside the trailing arm lol
i was considering to pay the garage to press the bearing in for me lol
#24: Re: Average price for rear bearing? Author: mcfly666, Location: DevonPosted: Thu Mar 31, 2011 12:17 pm ---- Banged the inside bearing in with a piece of wood (it has a lip on it) the outer bearing I banged in with wood untill flush and finished it of with a piece of 52/51mm bar, it sits inside the trailing arm about 1/4 of an inch.
#25: Re: Average price for rear bearing? Author: Steve206, Location: UKPosted: Thu Mar 31, 2011 2:24 pm ---- Anyone got any pics of what theyve been doing?
#26: Re: Average price for rear bearing? Author: mcfly666, Location: DevonPosted: Sat Apr 02, 2011 7:29 am ---- I dont steve, my job is all finished There is a guide on youtube which might help you (I posted near the start of the thread)
