There is a tech article on ttnet that I followed http://www.twinturbo.net/net/viewmsg.aspx?forum=general&msg_id=1006149&forum=technical&dtSearch=0 and it was most helpful. The procedure is fairly straight forward, although you will need a large 36mm socket and a huge breaker bar (I broke 2 in the process). The new bearing comes as complete hub replacement, ie; both inner and outer bearings in a housing. You may need to replace the inner bearing dust seal. It's dirty work so a degrease before you start is a good idea. edit: you will need access to a press of some sort to fit and a grinder to remove the old bearings, as they tend to stick to the axle. This takes a steady hand as you do not want to score the axle to avoid the bearing spinnig.
Thanks for the help mate! But where can I buy the bearing? In brisbane? And what should i be asking for? Juan
Try Cresta, Amec or any Nissan dealer. Ask for the left/right rear wheel bearing hub. Check the link for a visual. They cost at least couple of hundred+ each.:cool PS: This was my 900th post, not quite a whore yet!!:zlove:
The LHS bearing can be used on the RHS if you are prepared to drill out a new hole for the locating pin (pretty easy). CnsZ has a stack of LHS one for cheap.

HELP Hi, I have been getting prices on getting the rear wheel hubs replaced and I quoted that they will get me the hubs, bur for $555 EACH! Now that is a bit ouch for me! One strange thing was that the guy from nissan said that they have to get a seperate bearing and hub, because the original hub/bearing had a lot of problems? Now I need suggestions? HELP PLEASE Juan
Refer my post above and get bearings from Allied Bearings (Nerang or elsewhere). AMEC or Gavin Wood Autotech can do replacement or... DIY?
no they are not the same Rear Wheel Bearings - F46BVV11-2L (Left), F46BVV11-2R (Right) Front Wheel Bearings - 4237 KIT
what about the NA Just found out I've got a TT bearing (F46BVV11-2L), anyone know what the part number is for the NA rears?
Another way if the bearing is stuck to the axle is to run a weld along the bearing and then split it with a cold chisel
pulsar N16 Guy at nissan said the N16 bearing part number is the same as the NA, can anyboy vouch for this?
Do you need 1 or both? I sold and fitted one side last week fopr a guy. I have another good second hand one here of you want it. PM me
thanks for the offer It's got to me new for me...I'll get a new one might just have to wait a few days get one from nissan, it's only $254.
I wasnt offering a bearing, I was offering a whole hub assembly. Its way cheaper and easier if you have a known crook bearing and are looking to get back on the road asap.
