Thats a weird one , i used these numbers as a cross reference Quinton Hazell QWB 532 and QWB 533 ... When i got them i found one of the kits to have a slightly smaller inner diameter so the stub bit would not go through the bearings .The suppliers told me they supplied them because i asked for them but there for two different cars !.

IIRC QWB532/533 are not for two different cars, they are for the same car but have handed nuts included in the kits.

Maybe one of the kits has a wrong bearing in it (check the numbers on the bearings themselves).

Yes your right, the company Sutton autofactors import bearings then box them .They made a mistake on a batch and put the wrong bearings in the the boxes marked QWB532.. caused me alot of inconvenience.

They all import bearings and box them, the only difference is the dearer boxes tend to have more right bearings in them smile
