2007 NC Front Wheel Bearings

Hi All,
Hoping to get some advice from the forum.
My mechanic has advised me that front wheel bearings need replacing.
Are these seperate bearings on in a Hub kit?.
Any recommendations on where to buy these from in or around Brisbane would be a great help.
Cheers - Agro

they are a hub kit

if you can source some RX8 hubs, they bolt straight up and are much stronger

As Regie said, get the RX-8 hub but it must be the later model RX-8 after 2009 for the ABS sensor connection to match.

The hub is a full sealed unit so you can't change the bearings and from personal experience, DON'T get an after market hub. I had ABS and fitment problems with the two I tried.
