Wheelbearings

[Oellie]

Hi Guys

Inner and outer wheel bearings and hub oil seals for both sides for only R476 for my Patrol from bearing connection in JHB and to top it all it's the right size as well.
Do anyone or know anyone that ever used this type of bearings on a vehicle ? (FBJ bearings), the sale person says it's good bearings but I'll be the test dummy and let you guys know how I find the bearings.

501349/10-FBJ R57.02 exl vat (Bearing)
33110XJA-FBJ R135.97 exl vat (Bearing)
65X88X9/18TAY R15.78 exl vat (Hub oil seal)

Nice one man did you chamfer the inner bearing or was it correct out the box?

[Oellie]

Tinus

It was correct out of the box.

WOW.... that's brilliant Ollie.... Let us know how it goes..... that reminds me... I must still do kingpin bearings at some stage....

[Russ Kellermann]

How Often have you guys actually Re-packed / cmpletely replaced wheel bearings.... and lets be brutally honest here. Im terrible, cant even remember when i did mine,...and no bearing issues at all,...but i dont wanna end up on the highway with a seized bearing.... any advice out there?

[Tinus lotz]

Russ I speak under correction but the manual says something about every 30 000 km? That is for re packing but I think its for heavy off road work we do set them up on every service .....stops that wobble effect

So glad I have never taken a wheel off the Patrol.................

Me and the bearings have an understanding - I dont bother you and you dont bother me

[ricster]

Thank goodness your patrol listens nicely to you....

Hi

Ek het op FBJ se website gekyk en kry nie iets onder die kodes wat jy gegee het nie. Is dit die stock nommers van die supplier? Kan jy dalk kyk wat die FBJ kode vir die bearings is? Dit behoort op die bering te staan.

Dankie

search on FRANS's postings . [tour de frans] he had a longish thread on Patrol wheel bearings .. part of which was the agents price and finding alternatives ...
