Bearings-Snap ring won't fit

[Bimati]

The originals were French jobbies, the replacements from Autozone were German jobbies.

I'll have to check the specific brand and I'll see if I can rescue the boxes to get you more information....stay tuned!!!

Drive it for about a hundred miles, then remove the front wheels/calipers & re-check the bearing tension with your scale thingy again after the bearings/races have seated.
Just a thought worth two cents...but only in Larryland.

Will do, Pickles. Thanks for the tip Uncle Dub.

Now I am curious. I am getting my front bearings repacked and when I went to the dealer they said all I need are new seals. I bought two OEM Japanese made seals and that's it.

I am taking my VX in to have the brakes and rotors replaced and the front bearings repacked. Aside from the seals, should I have some other parts/hardware for them to do the job right?

Thanks- Bart

While they are repacking the bearings, have them look at the bearings and races for wear.....it would be a good time to replace those if they need it. If not, repack and carry on your merry way.
