I know most people are talking about specs, but just to put it out there... on ebay I bought both Timken and AC Delco hub bearings for cheap.

The Timken rears came directly from the factory in Tennesse I bought them for @ 150.
And the AC Delco fronts came directly from the warehouse for 170.

So if any of you still want these names they are more affordable than previously posted and they come directly from the factory/warehouse not to mention the original waranty

If you wanna use the less expensive ones, Ahhhh, **** it and take the damn ABS off and simplify your life a bit more! Less brake/electrical problems to worry about!

I got my T55 socket at Sears - but it's not a Craftmans, its a Lisle (made in USA). It's not with the other sockets, it's with the automotive specialty tools (compression testers, bearing pullers, etc.). It was only about $6-8.

You'll also need a 36mm socket and a torque wrench that can read up to 163 (IIRC?) foot pounds. I rented the torque wrench because out of the 3 I have, the biggest one only goes up to 150 ft-lbs.

the torx bits come in the red/white packaging, common brake caliper sizes.

I bought a 150 ft-lb tq wrench from harbor frieght, and the end busted off at about 120.

Have to go back to Sears, Osh and Harbor Freight didnt have em. Got the big nut off the bearing last night, wasnt too bad. Bought an awful lot of "one time use" tools for this car

Ill get the brand and PN for the rears I used to add to your list.

There's also a handful of bearings that will fit but change your rotor and wheel offsets a bit.[/QUOTE]


Especially about the made in China part!!!!!

A good friend of mine used to work for a bearing supply company, and they were always about 20% cheaper than the Auto Parts stores, even before my discount. Not sure if they would carry the hub assemblies or not, but worth a try. All you needed was the above bearing numbers to look them up. Another possible avenue for you to explore in your area.

If the website is down, how do you get ahold of them or their replacement parts?

Has anyone tried a 513013 rear bearing on an 84-96?

I noticed the thread started out mentioning it might work then listed it will. I checked prices and oehq has the ac delco 513013 for $167 while the 513020 is $250.
