Reply to "Rear wheel bearings"

Are you investigating bearings  because you have diagnosed a problem or are you just seeking a project?

how many miles are on your car and how many miles do you put on your car each year?

Many rear axle problems are a result of excessive wear on the stub axle’s. The miles on your car and/or known upgrades or maintenance would provide a clue if the bearings have in fact reached the end of their life span  

The stock OEM bearings are readily available and the process does require some skills and  a hydraulic press, but it is not a difficult or precision task.

I know of nothing inherently inadequate with the stock bearings, certainly no more so than in any other classic automobile.

Sometimes original is good enough.
