    Mk2 escort rear wheel bearings

    I'm after some rear wheel bearings for an English rear axle, does anybody know where to get some decent ones ie genuine Ford quality not those cheap kack ones with the o ring.

    Try and find SKF brand bearings - they seem to have the best rep for being 'leak free' - not cheap but v. good. Beware though there are fakes out there - cheap generally IS nasty!

    Just fitted 2 to 2 different Axles

    Got the first 1 from my local Motor factors for my own car

    It was a -FAG one , it had no oil seal - £25

    A friend bought 1 from Burtons , no name on it - had the Oil seal fitted - £ 25

    Both seemed good quality

    Time will tell

    Just found a couple of SKF ones and ordered them up, a bit pricey but as the yanks say buy once cry once.
