Posted October 18, 200420 yr comment_98461 Does anyone have the numbers for the rear wheel hub bearings.I want to order the barrings from Bearco here in Dallas, so that I can just press the old ones out, turn around and press new ones in. Im just looking for the spec numbers on the bearing, not the nissan part #. Anyone?

October 18, 200420 yr comment_98464 Make sure the outer bearing is sealed one. The original bearing is sealed on just one side. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/13661-bearing-numbers/#findComment-98464 Share on other sites More sharing options...

October 18, 200420 yr comment_98502 There are two bearings in the rear hub, the inside and the outside. The outside bearing is exposed to the brake drum, there is no separate seal. So they use a sealed bearing. A bearing that has a plastic cover protecting it. New sealed bearings have this plastic cover on both sides. Which makes them impossible to lube. The stock bearing is sealed only on the outside. Sorry, it's a little hard to explain but when you take your hub apart you will see what I'm talking about. If no one knows the spec #'s then you might just want to order them from VB. BTW an impact gun will be your best friend when your doing this job. And you will need a bearing puller or a press.Good luck.

October 18, 200420 yr Author comment_98541 oh ok, i know what your saying now, i did one side like 6 years ago when i was still in HS. (dont ask me why i didnt do both sides...i dont know). Order from Victoria BRitish, does anyone have the price for the inner bearings? I can get bearings for 25 each at O'Reilly's but I'm not really interested in buying from them. Like I said earlier I can get some quality bearings at Bearco in Dallas for less then 25 bucks each. Do you think if I called MSA or VB they would give me the spec #? Thx for the help and info.
