Wheel Bearings and Seals
Gents,
Are there civilian equivalents from NAPA or some other auto parts place that serve as sources of supply for wheel bearings and seals, or do we have to use the usual military parts houses?

Re: Wheel Bearings and Seals
You can get the bearings for NAPA but you will find that they are more expensive than buying surplus and they are also Chinese. The seals you can get some that work but you cannot get the original military double lip seals from NAPA.

Re: Wheel Bearings and Seals
Best bet is grab GI seals and bearings from your favorite vendor or Peebay. It's not a hard job but it's a messy job.

Re: Wheel Bearings and Seals
I just did my A2. Replaced some bearings, full seal kit. I used PVC pipe (2 different diameters) with a wood block and a hammer for installing the wear collars. Worked extremely well!

Every now and then a good hammer solves a problem!
