Good Evening,
I'm doing a Wilwood Brake conversion this weekend and want to change the wheel bearings while I'm at it. I searched the forum for part numbers but got more confused after the search.
Does anyone know if wheel bearings are available at the local parts stores and if so the part numbers?
Thank You,
John

They also fit Mangustas and early '60s Ford pickup trucks. They will need greasing, as what's on the packaged bearing is shelf preservative. Good luck-
"You will need 2 each of these 3 NAPA parts #s"...For the front wheel bearings.
The rear wheel bearings are entirely different and available from most Pantera vendors.
Thanks for all the info. The NAPA part numbers are obsolete now. The person at NAPA was unable to cross reference them.
I will let you know if I find a new source for these.
Thanks,
John
Front wheel bearings:
Outer set: A-2 (SKF is BR2). Consists of LM11949 cone and LM11910 cup.
Inner set: A-6 (SKF is BR6). Consists of LM67048 cone and LM67010 cup.

Thanks John!
To buy ANY bearings, I recommend going to King Bearings in most medium-to-large cities, and take an old bearing with you. They will measure your part, cross-reference it and locate one in their stock. Bearings are made to myriad sizes for international use. They have bearings for Model A's from 120 years ago- I'm sure a mid-'60s car made with off-the-shelf parts will be no problem.
