hey guys, i need my OSR wheel bearing replacing, but dont think i can afford to get it done by zedworld his month :-( so i was wondering, is it an easy job? what section of the service manual would it be in? (i cant seem to find any reference to bearings) are they bolt in units or press in, and is it worth going down the second hand route? cheers guys

They are a nasty job mate!-they bolt to the upright but the hub is pressed in.

The hub nuts are ridiculously tight as well!:pinch:

lol you need a ramp air gun .. and the sockets i guess, in birmingham a few non turbo onez breaking im going to get a complete hub from them its cheaper

about 216nm aren't they? I found tightening them up to be a more of a bugger as even the handbrake wasn't holding the hub hard enough! Got there in the end though.

 

Also check the grease seal on the back of the hub as well.
