wheel bearings
Went to a local auto parts supplier today, asked about a set of wheel bearings for the F15. Mind you, this was for one side only. My quote, " about $500".
Wow! I was polite and left.

Mine Gott!!
Mob in Wagga Ryan called CBC (Consolidated bearing Company)... They have outlets all over the place...
Been very helpful in the past and far more reasonable than your bloke with price. Just take the old ones in so they can measure up...even giving them the old part numbers can help.. Should be able to get them somewhere far more reasonably priced than $500.

Hi Andrew I'll follow up with them if the CBC dealer in geelong isn't reasonable. Thanks Tony. Can you PM me with how much they cost you up there through them please?
Home by myself at the moment so I'm out in the shed cleaning wheels. My F15 truck has 3 Kelsey wheels from 1942. And 2 General Motors wheels from 1941. The GM wheels feature a pattern on the rear. And totally off topic but I'm stopped for lunch. Eating 2 minutes noodles at the moment, if you haven't tried them, "Maggie Fusian" noodles are the best on the market.

I have not bought bearings for the F15 Ryan, I did however by the very large passenger side outer wheel bearing and cone off CBC for the F60L. Cost was $60. Stands to reason if I had bought both bearings they would have been somewhere around $120. Much less than $500. Importantly it was the correct bearing first time round. I would happily go back there and be happy to chase some prices down for you if you'd like.

Bearings where to find and what do they cost - Always a good ?
Hi All
Over the years they topic of where to find bearings and seals have come up with quite regularly on MLU. But regularity (as we all know) is good. Our MLU community is so far flung that what is one man's easy source is another's dream. That we keep asking the questions and answering these questions is good because it keeps bring out new potential sources and it also gives us a an idea of what a fair price should be. My contribution to this information exchange is shown on http://canadianmilitarypattern.com/H...0a%20wheel.htm which as you scowl down gives a list of all the bearings and seals for the front hub my C60S and the costs. The one thing that is missing which I will fix is the date I bought them. My favorite bearing and seal source is Motion Industries www.motionindustries.com that though they claim to be world wide I understand this is not always true. Best of luck to anybody working on a CMP keep up the good work. Cheers Phil
