wheels bearings for mk2 golf

hi i am looking for sum real wheel bearing for mk2 golf syncro
where is the best bles to get them???????

 

VW strangely enough!

There are 2 different sizes so make sure you give them the chassis number for the correct part.

 

Hi,
I need 68mm rear Syncro Mk2 wheel bearings.
I can not use a chassis number as this is a Mk1 R32 hybrid conversion.
I have been told that Passat fronts from 1974 to 1980 are the same. Can anyone confirm.
If so a supplier and part number would make my life easy.
Back to shortening the driveshafts.

whatever you do don't go to david lees vw in alcester, he made a right balls up of fitting my syncro's rear wheel bearings. for the cost of labour you can buy a hydraulic press from ebay and diy.

have a look on vwsyncro.co.uk for some info on which bearings will fit, i got mine from listers vw in stratford, 40 quid each as i recall, but if you can use the passat fronts (and i think you can) you can get FAG bearings (OEM fitment) from gsf/eurocarparts i believe for about 20 quid each.

 

yes i believe passat fronts are correct as i have sorted these out for somone else with a mk2 syncro

 

fag part number is 713610160 ( 68mm outer diameter and 39mm inner ) , they fit on rear of mk2 syncro and front of passat 73 > 88

 

VAG 331 598 625

 

thanks all
