Boromir Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 Do not buy the two part bearing, they go for around £25 and they do not fit. I sould know I made the mistake and now got to wait to get my new ones. Buy the single piece ones there more expensive but they work the best. They go usually for £40 to £50.

humperdingle Posted March 22, 2010 Report Share Posted March 22, 2010 Nice one. I just got an '03 Jimny, and i'm sure the bearings will go at some point although there isn't any wobble at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobt Posted March 22, 2010 Report Share Posted March 22, 2010 Or buy a landrover? the £17 bearing kit fits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy75 Posted March 22, 2010 Report Share Posted March 22, 2010 Would rather catch herpes first Did the bearing replacement cure your problem? Sometimes wheel wobble at 40-50 can be the kingpin, or even a caliper binding a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes wheel wobble at 40-50 can be the kingpin, or even a caliper binding a bit. Certainly the wheel bearing. I will check the kingpins no leakage beneath the car when stationry for long time. Also note if you go to the motor factors make sure you say to the guy ordering the wheel bearing to get the right one, somehow the computer seems to think the two piece bearing is the right one which is not.
