110 wheel bearing help

[denviks]

morning all. just a quick one.

i have a 1991 110 csw with a salisbury rear axle on. it has rear drum brakes fitted. are the wheel bearings the same as the disco wheel bearings?

i have looked on paddocks and as far as i can see they have the same part numbers...


i have a rumbling one so need to sort it asap


cheers in advance

ive been messing with mine today as well. it was well shot. good quarter of an inch up and down movement. just nipped it up for now will replace it later. anyone know if theres anytihng tricky about it?

[muddysteve]

yeah they are they same

dead easy to change aswell, if you can do a disco one then you'll do this with your eyes closed

Well the bearings on mine were re-lubed and have run ok til now, but as I'm in there doing the brake's I'm replacing them.

Now mine's an early one with 2 seals per hub, 1 to stop the axle oil getting to the bearings, lots of stuff on-line about leaving the seal inside the axle/hub (depends on model) out, even grinding a flat on the half shaft seal running section, so axle oil can, like on a series, get to the wheel bearings and lube them. So grease first to start with then + oil, it's supposed to be better at resisting water entry too.

Opinions?

The advantage is you know a lot sooner that the bearing is going again/seal wearing out by the oil leak. The disadvantage is its a lot more to clean up the brake shoes/drum from the contaminated oil.
