NA rear wheel bearing size 80mm OD 42mm ID x 45mm tall ?

Postby malstc » Wed Aug 25, 2010 3:19 pm

I've just had some rear wheel bearings arrive and they seem bigger than I imagined. I'm not sure why I expect them to be any particular size. They just seem big and heavy!?

Can someone confirm that 80mm OD 42mm ID x 45mm is about right? This would save me some real trouble if I pull it apart and it's wrong.

Google is telling me that they could be from a 2006 mx5 and not be for my 1990 mx5.

I just checked on my computer and you do seem to have an NC wheel bearing.

The NA wheel bearing size is 40mm ID 74mm OD and 40mm Wide. If you do need a set of NA wheel bearings, I can get them for you.

Cheers,

Adam.

Damn!

It looks like 80mm OD 42mm ID x 45mm tall is for NC's

They're marked 510010 for reference.

I guess I'll try to sell them on at cost - I doubt it's worth resolving through the seller given the postage costs.
