Suzuki Sierra SJ70 Sept 94 Rear Wheel bearing

Post by bushpig59 »

Well it had to happen ...The left rear bearing or oil seal is passing diff oil... Considering the minor pounding not to bad.
Has any body got a low cost supplier of Rear wheel bearings and oil seal plus the spacer? Im in Geelong but Mel is fine... Local bearing place wants too much for them....

Also the rear brake shoes are in big need of replacement who has the cheapest replacements for those too?

I'm in QLD, so can't help you with a suplier.

But with the brake shoes, make sure you get the right ones for your car, as there is something like 3 or 4 different types of rear drum assemblies fitted to Sierras. Just a warning so you don't have to do 2 trips.
Wheeling on completely wicked angles, without even looking stable.

Thanks Highway-Star got the Bearings today at CBC the kit cost was $58.77 each includes the wheel bearing the ring cover and oil seal.

The Kit from CBC rear wheel is KIT CZ293 Rear replacement bearing and seal kit.

I bought in my axles to compare and they where the exact replacement.
I thought it was going to be hard to do but really its quite easy. I have NEVER done major mechnical stuff like this but I found it pretty easy. I did have the Zuki Boys Manual on PDF to assist and a couple of of phone calls to ronoor mistaboz and my mechanic brother in law. ;)
Oh and to remove stubborn axles tie some nylon rope 60 -70 cms in length around the axle and the other end to the sledge hammer and sling the sledge hammer AWAY from the axle the "snatch" from the rope worked pulling the axle off... :lol:
If you want pics of the whole operation I will post them on the thread ;)
