Title: AC Bristol Disc Brake Front Wheel Bearings
Post by: aceaceca on June 12, 2020, 04:09:46

My question is: Are the front wheel bearings the same for disc and drum cars. Could someone in the know please post Timkin or other makers part numbers. I do see
reference information for BEX333 but not all Bristol cars had disc brakes. Appreciate your input.

AceAceca.

BEX333 has drum brakes not Discs,  I will go through my old invoices and see if I can help with Bearing   Reference Numbers. 
In the meantime may I suggest you call Brian Eacott  who should  be able to answer  your questions, Confirm part numbers and possibly supply parts.

Not sure if this helps as I do not age of your car but have a look.

The question has been answered by Brian Eacott. The wheel bearings are the same for disc and drum braked cars.
Many thanks
