Changing rear wheel bearings

<< < (2/2)

SteveP:
ETKA says either and advises to confirm on the car  :confused:

nc35:
Thanks Steve.

Didn't want that answer. Looks like I will have to take it off and measure then replace or leave on stands for a day or so.

Could you possibly post both part numbers?

Many thanks

a friend of mine had one of his rears changed, it was the entire hub that was changed as the bearing is an integrated part of the hub

nc35:
Cheers.
Yep that is right. But there are still two sizes.
As I am learning there is no way to tell what size until the old one is removed.
Even dealers get both in stock when changing.
Managed to get  it done on the side for £25 plus about £60 for the bearing regardless of size.
At least I will know what size to get if the osr goes.

nc35:
Turned out to be 30mm

bit fed up looks (sounds) like both have gone  :sad1:

another £100
