I Need to replace the wheel bearings on my 460. Can anyone recommend a good non mercedes brand and where to get them? I find eBay has far too many choices and not always correct.

Cheers

Re: Wheel bearings

Most bearing suppliers can provide the right bearings (Timken brand, or FAG etc), if you provide them with the dimensions or part number. However, you will also require new seals and quite possibly new gaiters for the CV joints. The same bearings are not that much more from MB.
