Hey All,

Just a quick quest' not sure if it should be in this thread?,

Where do you get your wheel bearings from, had one colapse on me today front drivers (well thats what it sounds like) , might aswell replace both, do you get em from autobarn? or a bearing shop?, do they even have these on the shelf here?, they should as most cars use the same type and size.

Thnx

Two of my wheel bearings started to squeal about 3 weeks ago(front left and rear right)

Bought a whole set off a guy here on the forums.He works for CBC bearings.The bearings i received are top quality.

PM me for info.

Sounds like a good price, as I have seen em for $120 ea on the front, waitin back for some more quotes.

Did you use an bearing puller for the back ones?, or the old grind and hax trix?.

Just a quick heads up, may not apply in this case but you never know over the net. A lot of times people with skylines think they have a stuffed wheel bearing it turns out to be something else (like warped rotors). If you've seen Skyline wheel bearings out of the car you will understand, they are well over engineered.

I've had stuffed wheel bearings in previous cars and I was positive that's what was wrong with my line but I was wrong.

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
