dont buy from ggr and the likes,you get motor factor bearings for double the price.i have compared ebay to my local factors where i get discount,ebay is cheaper and prob less hassle,you dont have to deal with mongs who need a reg number to find parts.
arent escort and saph bearings different,wasnt that 1 of the changes when they made the escort?i think theres something different with the hubs,the bearings are prob the same tho.

Mongs who need a reg number???
More like the brainless cunts who want the right parts but don't know their reg number!!!
How the fuck do you think you get the right part for your car??
By all maens next time you go to your motor factors, ask for part by part number and you will save the mong from needing your reg!!

yeah its different when its your own business coz u want to help ppl to get the sales, but where as some motor factors have just employees that dont care if they get the business sales as long as they get paid at the end of the month.

Our motor factor is a family run buisness, we give excellent service as the more the shop makes the more money we make.
Obviously if you employ muppets they will act like muppets.

So if I give you my 88 saph reg number it's going to help?
Maybe you care whether you get the right parts but I find some people struggle to get the right parts sometimes.

Yes, it helps me no end. It's the only way to get correct parts for your vehicle. Do you think we ask for reg for a laugh? It's what the main dealer will also do.

yep as said , a reg number is helpful..even an 88 saph reg when put in my system will give all details of the car down to the date it was built...handy for some things where ford or whatever make..decide to change the spec of a part half way through the production line.

Can you supply just the bearing seals mate? fords sell them on their own but if i can get them online it would be easier than going down and dealing with someone with no interest in what i want.

i need the seals for a cosworth 4x4 front and rear bearings, like this one, they go either side of the bearing to stop the dirt etc getting in.



4 for the front (2 inner and 2 outer all the same)
4 for the rear (2 inner and 2 outer all the same)

thanks
Marc
