Rear Wheel Drum bearings (avoid this seller)
-> 206 Problems

#1: Rear Wheel Drum bearings (avoid this seller) Author: pug_206_uk, Location: Stoke on trent PostPosted: Sat Oct 18, 2014 12:44 pm

well, i've replaced both rear wheel bearings on my rear brake drums and come to fitting them to the axel and one bearing already has play in it and the noise you no know when you spinning the wheel! Embarassed

Anyway I've messaged the seller with numerous messages explaining the problem and not heard anything back, funny thing is they say 2 year warranty in big letters in the listing this is clearly wrong.

I have removed the drum from the axel and visually inspected it and can see anything other wrong than a small gap between the inner and outer race but guess this is normal or not? I did have it professionally pressed.

So just wanted to share this with you i've attached the sellers link to them so you don't have the same problem can only guess there bad quality.

I'm not sure its just the exact same bearing as in the ebay link.

I swapped the drum over to the other side to see if it still had the same problem just to rule out anything else that may have been damaged.

Its defiantly foobarred!! Evil or Very Mad

I'd always try & get a SKF bearing if possible.

If not a F A G or Koyo bearing would be a good 2nd choice.

Nothing wrong with ECP parts. They are as cheap as my local factor and sell the brands I like to use.
Even Halfords are worth going to if you have a trade card, and find a lot of things are cheaper than going to the local motor factors.
