Front wheel bearings

[rcappie]

Hi Guys and Gals, Does anyone know the part number for the front wheel bearings. I would like to use Timken

brand bearing if I can find a place in the La Porte In. area or online. The numbers I need are for a Freewheeler front wheel. Model year is for a 2019 so I'll need the number for the ABS bearing and the regular bearing. Sorry for being so winded. Thanks as always, Rich

I had ALL BALLS bearings installed last year when new tire was installed. Sorry , don't know the # BUT maybe check them also.

The HD bearings would NOT be a problem if you pop off the dust shield( it can be done if you are careful) and pack more grease in them. They are ALL under lubed by the manufacturer ( this goes equal for most aftermarket bearings)

I have checked many of these bearings both HD and after market and am amazed at the lack of lube

All balls and SKF seem to be the better of the aftermarket ones IMO

This is my biggest gripe with HD in the last 10-15 years is their crummy wheel bearings. My '76 Superglide still has its original bearings and its turned the clock. So nowadays when I change tires I change the bearings.Yeah yeah you can test for play doing the finger test and a dial indicator but 100 miles down the road and my luck the bearing craps out. Ive got the Jims tool and the wheel is already on my tire changer ( Nomar) so why not? Something else- keep the friggen power washer away from your wheels. Those bearings are ok in the rain but not designed to have high pressure water sprayed on them. When I get my bikes/ trike inspected I tell the service writer not to wash em. Some HS dropout back there with a power washer has probably ruined more bearings than any cross country trip ever has.
