Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility Check: Before purchasing, it is crucial to verify vehicle fitment using the provided make/model tool or by comparing the dimensions (Outer Diameter: 53 mm, Inner Diameter: 29 mm, Width: 37 mm) with your existing wheel bearing. This kit is specifically designed for the rear axle of the Ford Fiesta Mk5 TDCi 1.4D (01-10), Ford Fusion 1.4 (02-12), and Ford Fiesta Mk5 1.6 (01-08).

Installation: Installation of a wheel bearing kit requires mechanical expertise and appropriate tools. It is recommended to consult the included SKF Service Book or a professional mechanic for detailed installation procedures. This typically involves removing the wheel, brake components, and the old bearing assembly, then pressing in the new bearing and reassembling.

Care: Wheel bearings are sealed units and generally do not require user maintenance after installation. However, regular checks for noise, play, or vibration during routine vehicle inspections are advised. Avoid high-pressure washing directly at the wheel bearing area, as this can potentially compromise the seals. If any issues arise, consult the troubleshooting section or a qualified mechanic.
