#1: Real wheel bearings! Author: Twidly, Location: Home - Norfolk, Uni - PrestonPosted: Sat Aug 06, 2011 5:01 am ---- So they're both going majorly... makes for a nice quiet journey!
Will this be ok? Ebay!
They've got some on AEP Direct, but they're £30 each, so you can see the attraction to eBay.
Also, are they difficult to fit? Or basically the same as the front?
Cheers

They are fairly easy to fit. You may have to make an improvised bearing puller with a long bolt with nuts and washers, socket and piece of decent gauge metal, but apart from that shouldn't have a problem.

Change an entire beam just for the sake of a wheel bearing?
It's only about an hours work tops to do both sides.

Definitely not changing the entire beam, isn't that like a s**t load of money?
Seabrook: She btw
