hello gents..& ladies,

while the tires were getting rotated i happen to grab and "wiggle" each of the wheels while off the ground. the right rear has a notable amount of movement/ slack. with a little interweb surfing it seems evidently i need to replace both the bearings..? can anyone tell me the timken set numbers needed for the inner and outer ? i don't think i would trust any other source as anywhere near accurate as all the seasoned veterans here..... i thank you all kindly for your shared wisdom in advance.

Max, 1A Auto parts has Timken inner bearings for $50(ish) a pair (left right).

I just bought them thinking they were a set of inner and outer bearing (ouch).

Good luck finding Timken outer bearings i struck out.. Wound up going to jaguar, $45 for one.

Now, you need 3 other things to do the job. Inner and outer seals, new axle nut (bad idea to reuse). Seals about $12 each. Nut typically $33.

FWIW Jagbits sells a kit (all above + grease) for around $70, but I can't say longevity is that brand's strong point.

Wow, SNG Barrett with decent prices! I'd given up on them long ago. Everytime they've been mentioned as a sponsor just kept quiet thinking emperor with no clothes. I now stand corrected.

Thanks for the links Graham, nice surprise.!
