timken, also if the inner bearing race has spun on your hub, you will need to replace the hub. If you dont, the wheel bearing will be going out again VERY soon.

If you have the original 1998 vertical links then you need the 76mm diameter bearings.

For example:
SKF Part # FW115

Timkin, *** or other name brand bearings will fit.

Thanks justs ordered from Napa store. 44 bucks. I believe my hubs are all original as this guy never replaced anything on this car when it went out. Car runs great just needs a lil TLC and paint job but want the mechanicals right first, then tires. So getting rid of the vibration and howling is gonna be an improvement!
