My fairlady tt 1990 Z32 has just failed its mot with exessive play

on the rear weel bearings. Does anyone know if these are adjustable or do I need to replace these items ??????

I would like to do this myself so any technical help or advice would be appreciated, eg torque figures, Prices and availability or

problembs etc.....????

 

Many thanks.............

The job itself is quite a long and rough one...ive been told.......I have just been qouted £180 and thats just for the bearings and thats per side, then its a 2-4 hour job but thats what ive been told may differ.

Could be wrong but be sure it is the bearing and not the hicas arm, some MOT testers are not too familiar with the zed.

I have just sourced a left hand rear wheel bearing for my 1993 UK 300. I didnt go near Nissan as the scarey price menu they have pushed me towards the motor factors. I had to order a full bearing kit which consists of the bearing/the carrier that bolts onto the car, with the old hub being pressed back into the new bearing/carrier, I was told by the factor that the bearing isnt sold on its own hence the high price they origionally quoted me of 110 quid, I eventually got it for 77 quid as I am in the motor trade and the kit was an SKF Bearing Kit.

 

It is in my work just now but if its the left side u need I can get the part number for u if its any use.

Sorry for the delay in hgetting the part number for the LH Rear Wheel bearing kit on my 300.

 

Wheel Bearing Assembly VKBA 3313.

 

As I say its an SKF bearing so touch wood it shouldnt be a problem fitting it to my car, the only prob being i havent had time yet to attempt it so I cant say what kinda job it is. The only other think is when phoning the Motor Factors, tell them u r in the Motor Trade to get a discount which may save the VAT, always something off the price.
