I am about to replace the wheel bearings on the TR4. What is currently installed is Timken. My question is this should I only use Timken or does brand really matter? At the moment Victoria British cu

Hi Jeremy, This is pretty common with auto-x inspectors and lbc's. The problem is the inspector doesn't have any experience with this type of car, and has probably just inspected a 2001 Honda. I sugg

Tightening the stub axle nut to the next flat after removing all play from the bearing is the wrong way to go. One does not preload a tapered bearing in this application. Hope this was just a misund

Discoloring of the bearing was usually means the bearing was overheated at some time, possibly not shot, but ready to go and quite possibly from being too tight, or lack of grease. There should be a
