Anyone near Bristol that can help?

There is a bearing supplier in brislington that will probably have some on the shelf, but you will need to tell them the exact size you require.

Or i got my last set from kingswood auto part. They can normally get them in a few hours.

Or GSF car parts might stock them

Good luck with the wheel bearings!

Any local motor factors should sell kits.

If you aren't having any luck I have a few spare hubs with good bearings in so it would just be a case of picking one up from me, will also save you knocking out the old bearings and refitting, as it happens I'll be in bath at work and in bath all evening so could even bring it in with me.

I'll throw it in the car just in case, you'll need a 50mm socket, 10mm and 12mm (possibly a 13 if they have used non standard calliper mount bolts) and 19mm, some opening circlip pliers and a flathead screwdriver/small pry bar to fold the locking tabs on the bearing nuts.

Hmm..you don't carry circlip pliers with you? Think Dan asked why I had some at Billing...

Thanks all, Again!!

I ordered a new complete kit from Jimnybits on a fast delivery.
So hopefully I can get in rolling on the road side to get it home.

Hi Scottie, I think I am going to go for this SJ and pick it up Saturday. It will need a new stub axle as the guy has butchered the threads getting it on/off. I have ordered a bearing kit, I think the is all it needs. Do you have a stub axle in your spares stock and what would something like that cost me?

Cheers

[ScottieJ]

Yes I have plenty of stub axles, £10 for the stub axle and all nuts, locking washer etc. sound ok?

My workshop is in corsham, 15mins up the road from bath and I'll be there most of the day tomorrow.
