Someone was advertising our hub bearing "ball type" on the site recently. Anyone have the contact info? I can't seem to find it with the searches and browsing I've done.

The only thing I've found is viewtopic.php?f=5&t=134&p=18798&hilit=bearing#p18798 which is from a year ago.

It was for the Fersa Ball bearing if I remember correctly. The two SNR's I have don't seem to be holding up well. Out of 4 bearings two have enough play that I would normally call bad. After one weekend one has sheared two cotter pins. Luckily I double nutted it after the first one so it held. Re-torque after first brought it back to the amount of play it originally had.

Maybe it's all the off-roading and curbs? :lol:

I’ve always known that if you are shearing cotter pins, your hubs are worn out and need to be replaced. I got away with double nutting for a bit but you need to address your hub issue also.
Older hubs can be rebuilt but on my car I replace all my older hubs with Fast Forward ones from my CSR.
Hope that helps.

Thanks for the links and advice. Purchased hub and bearings. Going together now.

I think triple t could use your old hubs if you have some old worn out ones laying around. Sent them what I had so they can build some inventory.
