must be pretty shite then, the 1.4's use the bigger bearing same as the 16V's etc
Only small bearing ones I have found are 1.4 c type 19's. |

Its what the bloke in the garage said, i then went to the factors and gave them the size "37x72x37 " went back to the garage and he pressed it in.
You think my hubs could be off a different model then Lunner? what size is the smaller size? |

63mm the smaller one.
Like I said 95% of them use the bigger bearing, only cars I have seen them are 1.2 clios and 1.4 c type 19's. |
