Nova Wheel Bearings

[Aamir]

Hi I've got a standard 'K' plate Nova GSi,
I've noticed a grinding noise coming (not constant)
from the rear passengers side wheel,
sounds like a worn bearing

Are Nova wheel bearings all the same,
or are their different ones for Sr, Sri, Gte, Gsi ?

I am breaking a 'E' reg Nova 1.2 carb,
could I use the bearings from this ?

Thanks for reading this post !

would be easier to use the whole hub, but prob is there is 2 different hubs as i remember and you gsi will have a different hub. the bearings might be the same mind!!

there only ?7 from car shop new!!

Should I go for original Vauxhall Bearings, or other aftermarket bearings.

Is their a Motorsport bearing or Performance bearing
I could use since I'm replacing it (presuming it will last longer)

What's involved in changing the bearing, may attempt it this weekend.

rear bearing is a piece of piss. can be done in WELL under an hour.

use patten ones on the rear.... easy to do only hard bit is pressing/bashing the races out

Just swop the whole hub over. there is no difference. Im using a corsa front hub on my nova. Its easier doing that than having the bearing pressed in.
