Can anyone suggest where i can get a resonably priced front wheel bearing replacement kit? also stainless steel brake lines for an 85 first gen?



ACT prices are insane! ive been quoted anywhere from $120 per side to $120 for a complete front end kit??



Cheers Matt.

 

you can try napa auto parts thats were I got mines and lines I got from mazdatrix

 

havent shopped for bearings in years!



um i just looked, if you went to a US dealership, it would be $108 for the bearings and 2 seals...

 

http://rockauto.com/ might check them instead of NAPA or Autozone (if you want to shop on line)



mazdatrix is great for Racing Beat products: ss lines, headers, etc



menlo mazda for dealer parts

 

I'm new to the 1st gen rx7 world and car maitenance. If I am replacing the bearings what all will i need? Do I just need the inner and outer wheel bearings and bearing collar?



Cheers

 

I replaced my front wheel bearings and the front brakes/hubs a few months ago. I ordered SKF(actually OEM brands Koyo and NSK in a SKF box) bearings and seals off parstamerica.com for a resonably price but it looks like they have gone up in price since then. You'll need a bearing race drive too unless you are reusing the races and a spring scale to measure the roll resistance.
