Wheel Bearings

[Yme33]

Hey All,

Just a quick quest' not sure if it should be in this thread?,

Where do you get your wheel bearings from, had one colapse on me today front drivers (well thats what it sounds like) , might aswell replace both, do you get em from autobarn? or a bearing shop?, do they even have these on the shelf here?, they should as most cars use the same type and size.

Thnx

Two of my wheel bearings started to squeal about 3 weeks ago(front left and rear right)

Bought a whole set off a guy here on the forums.He works for CBC bearings.The bearings i received are top quality.

The bearings i received are made in Japan.CBC supply all the manufactures bearing type products.They also sell Gates products,the timing belt which is in my car now was also from CBC.

I got a mates rate price for the bearings which came to $220 from memory.

Sounds like a good price, as I have seen em for $120 ea on the front, waitin back for some more quotes.

Did you use an bearing puller for the back ones?, or the old grind and hax trix?.

Just a quick heads up, may not apply in this case but you never know over the net. A lot of times people with skylines think they have a stuffed wheel bearing it turns out to be something else (like warped rotors). If you've seen Skyline wheel bearings out of the car you will understand, they are well over engineered.

I've had stuffed wheel bearings in previous cars and I was positive that's what was wrong with my line but I was wrong.
