Are they the same both sides only the nut being handed........

Not 100% sure m8 but i replaced both on my 4x4 saph and they were fooking dear !!!

 

Might be better off buying high speed bearings from bearing supplier if they are silly money ?
How much are they normally then ?

30 Pound plus post to Ireland. Road in other words.
I tried a good bearing shop and they could not track them down....
Won't mind its a SKF bearing i have and there a big brand.

 

I bought mine from my local PartCo motorfactors.

 

Whos partco are they a auto parts place....

 

Yeah just an average motor factors. Have you tried your local factors? They were even in stock complete with handed nuts etc.

 

I went to a bearing supply house here in Australia, I found that the front bearing set is a common ford size. The rears were a special size which I have to buy direct from UK.
Regardless I suggest you take in the seals and bearings as I did as that is the best way to buy these kind of bearings. The numbers do not lie.

the rear bearings are the same for any sierra/granada so you won't need to pay there, but make sure youget the ones with the metal cage rather than the plastic, because they tend to break when you try and remove them, spilling their inards all over the floor

the front ones i found were difficult to locate and, if you do the nut up too tight, tend to easily strip the threads off the cv's

i know, but he never said front or rear, and i was also refering to my wrecking of one 2wd front (which also chewed up the abs sensor so cost me more than it should have )

 

He may have not said front or rear but you said that the fronts tends to strip the threads off the cv's
