Stock Diff Bearings

Post by kiwimanz »

Hi all,
Need to replace my diff bearings and seals. Does anyone know if they are a stock metric sizes or are they some funky OEM thing?
Cheers

Hi all,

The differential bearings and seals should be readily available from the suppliers advertising in here or from a parts store, from either Timken, National or others.

Just a thought.

If you want to make sure you get the right parts, get them from mc2. You might pay more than sourcing on your own, but you'll know they are 100% correct. Wheel bearings and rear shoes are always a challenge.

I would say this is good advice. Also have you considered taking stuff you need off another XR (parts car)?
