bx rear wheel bearings

Unread post by kevino »

Hi Everybody, could somebody please tell me, are the rear wheel bearings for a bx 1.9 rd estate the same as the rear wheel bearings on a Xantia mark one saloon? The reason I ask is my near side bearing on my bx is getting a bit loud and i want to replace it, but when I went to GFS they don't stock this part for the bx anymore but they do stock the bearing for the xantia, and it would save me going to the main dealer (heaven forbid).

many thanks kevino

Hopefully someone will tell you. If it isn't, get the number from the wheel bearing and try your local (or otherwise) bearing stockest.

BX rear wheel bearings comes as a complete Hub assembly only as the bearing races can not be removed from inside the hub.
Genuine part no 3701.42

The same hub assembly is used on some other PSA models :
The first series Xantia non-ABS, C15, 405 & 405restyle (non-ABS).
And even some older models no longer listed.

You will also need the 3726.14 bearing cup, which is the large disc that the rubber lip seals against - at rear of the hub.
This cup is only some £1.5'ish but genuine part only.

The above 2 part no's are valid at both your Peug and Cit dealers.
