Anyone know the NAPA part number for the correct wheel bearings? My -725 is in the shop to get some brake work done to it, and while the wheel seals are being replaced, in case the mechanic sees the original bearings are crap, I'd like to pop on down to NAPA and get the bearings for him. Thanks,
It will be a lot cheaper to get them from AB Linn.
Yes, I agree. But if the mechanic says it needs them, I can walk nextdoor and order them next day from NAPA. I am only buying them if the guys needs them, but if he does, I will need them right away.
I just looked through the manuals and couldn't find it. I know it was listed there at one time. Jon should be along soon and he will know where it went.
From previous posts:
The rear wheel bearing p/n's are as follows. Timkin brg's inner cone is 469, inner cup 453X (not positive), outer cone is 368A, and I don't know the outer cup. The rear wheel bearing seal is National p/n 416282 (size 2.750 x 4.249 x .468 double lip seal) which replaced National p/n 476282-X54. There is no seal between the differential and the wheel brg's so expect to have gear oil lubing the whl brg's.

Wheel Bearings, Rear
The information I have for the rear is for the bearings only. I don't have the cup numbers. Outer bearing is Timken #368A with a 2.000" bore rated at 4600 lbs.
Inner bearing is Timken #469 with a 2.250" bore rated at 7300 lbs.The seal is a NAPA #27601. If someone has the Timken cup numbers I will add this to my
book.

The numbers are on the bearings. Your mechanic will know exactly what to get if needed.

I bought the front wheel bearing seal from NAPA for about $50. Someone here said that AB Linn had it for under $10, IIRC.
I bet his bearings are much cheaper, too.
I hve nothing further to add than whats been said...I would have to tear into mine to get more info...
The bearing and race will have a number on them that can either be used as is or crossed into another manufacturer.........
Typically, the bearing number starts with an LM
Wow. Was anybody else confused by the above replies?
I just pulled the hubs from a customer's M715 and here are the orig part #'s. The bearings AND seals were the same for front and rear, contrary to the parts manual and to some of the above posts.
Inner wheel bearing:
387A Cone/Roller (Timken)
382A Cup (Timken)
Outer wheel bearing:
18790 Cone/Roller (Timken)
18720 Cup (Timken)
Wheel seal:
475384X54 (National)
A set of bearings and seals should run around $60 per wheel. Don't buy them at your local parts store. They'll charge you at least twice the going rate. Find a bearing distributor or order from an online warehouse.
Great info...direct and to the point.
A great big WHOOPS!!! I wish I could edit my previous post to save myself some embarrassment. Seems I stayed in the shop too late last night and had my parts piles mixed up. The fronts and rears ARE different. Mods, please delete my previous post. Thanks.
Here are the orig part #'s for the wheel bearings and seals.
Front:
475384X54 Seal
Inner Bearing:
387A Cone/Roller
382A Cup
Outer Bearing:
18790 Cone/Roller
18720 Cup
Rear:
476282X54 Seal
Inner Bearing:
469 Cone/Roller
453X Cup
Outer Bearing:
368A Cone/Roller
362A Cup
Expect to pay around $60 for the front set and $75 for the rear set at a bearing distributor or online parts house. You'll pay at least twice that at your corner parts store. AB Linn will probably cut you an even better deal if he has them.
All of the bearing #'s are still good.
The seals have apparently been superseded.
These should work...
Front Seal: p/n 475384
Rear Seal: p/n 416282
