    Unhappy Elmo's 3 Legged

    This is what Elmos front left wheelbearing looks like after going bang at 100kph .I think i'm going to have to replace the stub axle as well ...... anyone got one they want to get rid of ? was quoted $209 at FWD's .




    Bearings already on the way .

    Hi Mick

    Try All Four x 4 Spares Home for a second hand stub axle. I got one for about $100 when my rear bearing let go a few weeks back. Wheel bearing kits, which include the seal, were $60 from them. However they are cheaper from here WHEEL BEARING KIT- LANDROVER / RANGE ROVER wbk4155 - eBay, Other Car Parts, Accessories, Car Parts, Accessories, Cars, Bikes, Boats. (end time 17-Sep-08 15:44:03 AEST)

    I'm about to do the rest of mine so I don't get any more suprises

    Just think of it this way, soon you will have replaced everything and then you will have a brand new ELMO
