I had my front offside wheel bearing apart just now as it seemed to be a bit noisy for the last few days. There wasn't a huge amount of grease in there so for not I cleaned up all the parts and regreased it, and it seems a lot quieter, although I suspect it will have to change.

So I was looking for SKF bearings on the flea and there aren't any at the moment, but I came across a Febi/Bilstein equivalent:

Febi Bilstein 05394

Anyone used this make - any good? They are cheap enough - maybe TOO cheap...

Ahh found an SKF supplier in Germany. £12 for the bearings and £8 for the postage, not too bad, although extra ones are no extra postage, so I might get a couple in.

Hi Adam.
If you haven't ordered yet I could do with a couple. I will split postage with you.
