Product Information

Full details

The SKF Wheel Bearing Kit (VKBA3480) is an essential maintenance component designed for rear axle fitment on specific Citroen and Peugeot vehicles. It provides the critical benefit of smooth wheel rotation, reduced friction, and enhanced vehicle stability, making it ideal for mechanics or vehicle owners performing suspension or drivetrain repairs. The primary caveat for this kit is that it is model-specific, requiring precise verification of vehicle compatibility before installation to ensure the 4-hole flange and dimensions match your specific hub assembly.

FAQs

Does this kit fit the front or rear of my car?

This kit (VKBA3480) is specifically designed for rear axle fitment only.

Does this kit cover both rear wheels?

No, each VKBA3480 kit services one wheel only. You will need two kits to replace the bearings on both sides of the rear axle.

Are special tools required for installation?

Yes, a hydraulic press is generally required to properly install the bearing into the hub without damaging it.

What is the diameter of this bearing?

The bearing has an outer diameter of 72 mm and a flange diameter of 128 mm.

How often should wheel bearings be replaced?

Wheel bearings do not have a set mileage interval. They should be inspected for play or noise during every major brake or suspension service.

Troubleshooting

Humming noise remains after installation

Verify if the noise is coming from the other side of the vehicle or if a tire/tread issue is mimicking bearing failure.

Bearing fits too loosely in the housing

Inspect the hub or trailing arm for physical wear or ovality; the bearing should be a press-fit.

Difficulty seating the bearing

Ensure the housing is clean, free of debris, and that you are using a proper press mandrel that contacts only the outer race.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Includes all necessary components (bearing and nut) for a single wheel installation
  • High-quality material construction reduces wear and vibration
  • Direct fit replacement for specified French automotive models
  • Ensures safety and handling performance by minimizing wheel play

Cons

  • Not compatible with all vehicle makes and models
  • Requires professional hydraulic press equipment for proper installation
  • Only services one wheel; two kits required for full axle replacement

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before beginning installation, ensure your vehicle is safely supported on jack stands and the rear axle is unloaded. Compatibility is limited to specific Citroen and Peugeot platforms; verify your vehicle's VIN or OEM part number against the VKBA3480 specification. Installation typically requires a hydraulic workshop press to seat the bearing correctly without damaging the races. Avoid using impact tools for the final torquing of the axle nut. Regularly inspect your wheel assembly for play during tire rotations to ensure long-term performance.
