Got cav turbo rear brakes on my nova which wheel bearing will I need? Standard nova one or a cavalier? Might sound a daft question but having not built the car myself and this been my first nova I'm still learning about it as I go lol. Plus I'm away with work atm so can't even just have a look.

Cheers

You will require cavalier ones , I presume it using the cav stub axle as well

Cheera for reply. I would of thought it has cav stub axle but couldn't say to be honest. Will just have to wait till I'm back.

You only need a bearing a hub.

Has the beam already for a rear disc convo fitted?

Already has the cav rear brakes on so I'm assuming so. I know you can just get the bearing itself but probably prefer to get those hubs with bearings already pressed in. Then im thinking i can just whip calipers and discs off and should just be 4 bolts on either side. Please correct me if I'm wrong though lol

If it's already ready convo to run disc then yes you can just strip it and fit the new stub axle and bits on.
Will be easier just unbolting it all rather than pressing bearings off.

Yeah that's what I thought, plus it can't hurt to have shiney new stub axles to go with the new bearings lol.
