Wheel Bearings

Hi
Made a bit of a mistake. Ordered the wrong bearings (and paid for them in advanced - grrr).

I doubt it but MkII Escort wont work for Cortina will they?

This morning I ordered a set of front wheel bearings for a Cortina and I'm pretty sure the same part number was listed for the Escort.

I don't think they are the same - the application catalogue I have is not very specific about which models had which bearings, but unless you bought them for a twin cam excort they are almost certainly not the same as a cortina.

I picked up my new Quinton Hazell wheel bearings today.They cost me £9.46 per side and fit both the Mk3 Cortina and The Mk2 Escort according to the catalogue they showed me.
Part No QWB115C.

Mk1 and 2 Cortina used a MacPherson strut with the stub axle attached so if you have those they will have to be cut down, I think Strikers used cut down Escort ones. Mk3 onwards used the uprights as used on Locosts, more likely to be 3, 4 or 5.





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
