christ! the timkin ones are well pricy now! they were 22quid last time I looked. http://www.minispares.com/product/Classic/...k%20to%20search Not that expensive if you have to replace the cheaper ones twice. Just majke sure that you check for even the slightest bit of play in the bearings when fully done up. If there is the slightest play, it won't matter what bearings you fit, they won't last long.

Is it A-Series only? I think it should be... So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'... On 26th Oct, 2004 Tom Fenton said:
Yep I agree with TD........ |

Glad I bought those new old stock bearings and ball joints at MITP 2010. I could rebuild the front hubs twice for less than £40 all with Gauranteed genuine parts On 26th Oct, 2004 TurboDave16v said:

timkin bearings are around £11 each (£22per hub) but im trying to get a deal on 12 bearings from bsl so with seals should be about 26 per hub . if anyone interested in some bearings let me know. they can get the seals also but i need a part number

As long as they are the real deal I'm in, but considering the quantities minispares are buying them in at I would question how they are so cheap. On 7th Oct, 2010 5haneJ said:
