coilly front wheel bearings !!!!

Post by Gareth »

Hi all
ive got 32" simex centipedes on my coily and am just chewing through my front wheel bearings and as they seem to be non adjustable like the older versions of the samurai this is becoming a very expencive exercise

does any one have any ideas to help ... ive heard that the bearings are the same as the vitara bearings and so can be adjusted with shims ?????

any help would be great

thanks
Gareth
