ek ook bloutjie geloop - oom eric se hier is anner bearing plek - hy sal my more gaan wys waar - dan traai ik hulle

[tour de frans]

Dankie almal
Ek kan kry sover vir R1000 incl. Ek het net gestaak vir n paar dae. (Dood in die familie)
Ek het nog n ou wat dit dalk kan verbeter. Ek wag op hom en sal dan alles hier plak.
Dis net die bearing se prys, en is nie n plaasvervanger nie. Het dieselfde part nr wat op die oorspronklike bearing staan.
Ek het nog so bietjie tyd nodig.
Ek sal die kontak details hier plaas as iemand dalk dadelik die bearing benodig. My kar ry nog met n bearing hum, maar ek beplan nie ver trips nie.
Groete

For what it's worth..

My patrol is at SAC Centurion and requires replacement of front wheel bearings (dont know how or why car is only 150,000km young and ive had them checked when i bought at 120,000km with no issues).

Apparently replacement requires a full set / hub type kit which the stealers want R12K for. SAC are going the fabrication route, should get feedback tomorrow.

David, for the GU they only sell the "hub kit", but they sell all the seals seperately. However, for the GQ, they sell the bearings loose (when they've got stock), and the bearings are all identical.

Thus, buy bearings for GQ and the seals for GU (the seals differ due to the ABS).

As far as I know the TD42 like David's, Christo's and mine for example don't have ABS.... so I wonder then if the seals are the same as the GQ

hmm, saw this a bit late - patrol is ready to be picked up. SAC had bearings machined for me.. all in cost on that job parts and labour is R3.6K

[ricster]

Dave was that for both sides??... That doesn't sound bad at all !!!

[davejones]

both sides. double checked. told SAC i'd share with the forum for those who'd like to go this route. doing a 2500km trip in a week's time so will let you know if the bearing job is a good one or not guinea pig.
