Have anyone replaced them so far? How big is the job or it's better off leave this mess for someone else to sort out?

Right now the offside rear wheel making a shitload of noise between 60-90km/h but it's gone after a while. Something similar is happening to the nearside front wheel between 40-70km/h. Could it be anything else besides the wheel bearing that's packed in?

Thanks fellas.

mmmmm.....yep, same prob I had!!! that's all it could be with your current description!!!

had my front bearings replaced 4 months ago. mmmmm...sweet.

don't try replacing them yourself, unless your big and got the right tools. (the front bearings on a 33 are massive and 'square' profiled'..as opposed to 'cone'.)

$120.00 for front bearings, appx $120 for labour. (Gary Rogers) rears should be similar. (search my previous thread on this, more correct info)

also....Check ur tyres, properley, too...check for 'feathering', pressure etc...

The noise difference was incredible once above 60kmh. (nothing now!!)

Do a search on my 'previous threads' on 'wheel bearings'....I'm sure that I left a lot more info on this subject, back then. (including prices!!)Just that I'm at work...and stuff!!!

      Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it

      All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.

      That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
