Wheels And Wheel Bearings

[daktari]

Well i`ve got the 16`s tyred and on the car. Only just got round to finishing painting the rear calipers and hubs. As you can see from the discs he`s not been used much in the last fortnight.

Unfortunately it looks like the o/s front wheel bearing has called it a day. More work.

I gotta list as long as my arm. But it will be done in time for the spring.

looks good , does it drive any better with the 17's took off

Pass. I didn`t take it more than about 1/4 mile. and then i never went over 30

I`ll finish off the front calipers tomorrow and take it for a decent run. Got to sort out that wheel bearing tho. It`s not helping matters. I`ve got a wheel bearing for a 165. Bet they`re different.

Marc.. Can the front hub come apart without destroying the ABS sensor? (Assuming it`s seized in)

yes if you unplug it from under the wing liner and remove the hub with sensor attatched.

Cheers mate. I was wondering where the plug was. Thought i`d have to cut the wires.

No worries. I`ve read previous posts about them I think it`s the side that was replaced about 18 mths ago but i`m still goin to leave it where it is. Cheers mate.
