Title: Rear wheel bearings
Post by: Worzel on June 17, 2009, 10:50:13 PM

I was talking to a man who makes diffs about bedford wheel bearings and he checked what he could get them for.
He was pretty surprised they were so expensive, but when i told him i'd been quoted twice that much he was even more surprised.
He can get them for $120, which is a bargain.
Didn't ask about retainers or oil seals.
Anyone interested PM me,
 i don't want to give him a dozen people asking the same questions and not buying,
 so if you need one i'll put you on to him
