delfinis38 1 Posted February 5, 2016 anyone know if you can just buy the rear wheel bearing caps on their own without the wheel bearing kit. (the cap you bang into the disk) the ones ive just used on the skf bearings needed the lip grinding down to fit. just nipped the rear wheel bearings up and one of the caps has gone back on a funny shape. its good to have some spare Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Goldie 2 Posted February 5, 2016 When i did mine they were reluctant to go in, they have to be lined up properly and they 'should' be ok.. Mine need to come off again to tighten the wheel bearings up so ill get to have another go shortly... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
delfinis38 1 Posted February 5, 2016 I miss shaped 2 this morning, trying to get them in.. Had to take a slight bit off with the bench grinder. Still very tight. Will order up a couple more for next time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
