Rear wheel bearing

Post by Leigh »

Hey crew, I am looking for a rear wheel bearing. So far I've only found a complete hub from japan, just wondering if anyone has any part numbers or if they know another type of car that uses the same bearing. thanks!

Mits promised 3 weeks but so far it is 4 and no sign yet.

THe above link is actually to the main page of parts from camskill for the drivetrain for the FTO which I think may have been the link Supplanter meant to post, not just the fronts. I found it interesting to see that a different rear wheel assembly is required for the cars with or without ABS, must be to accomidate the sensors? :?:

I got the Bearing number: DACF1085 Koyo Japan.

Rang a few bearing shops and a no go, so I'm just gonna get my japanese friend, to get one of his friends who works at nissan over in japan to send one over... Might get 2 if they are cheap enough, just in case.

what are the symptoms of a worn rear wheel bearing?

i am getting some knocking noises only when I turn left, it's either my exhaust tip bainging against the rear bar, or i figure it could be this wheel bearing thing, coz when i got my gearbox fixed, the guy mentioned that he heard what could be wheel bearing noises frlom the back..

with my one I actually hit a curb pretty hard, I jacked it up and i could wobble the wheel quite a bit. not quiet sure about "worn" bearings as opposed to "crunched" bearings :P

From my experience G1 the sound from a worn wheel bearing is more of a schreeh (spelling?) than a bang or knock. Your noise, especialling as it's when you turn left sounds more like a CV. THey can knock and go on for a while warning you that they may need replacing or rebuilting shortly.
