wheel bearing hub ?
Moderator: martauto
hey guys i have a 320 with drum breaks on the back and have replaced the bearings but still have a horrible noise from the back end and lose hubs in the bearings as it looks like this is the first time these have been changed i been told that over the years the hubs have become knackered so need replacing but cant find any anywhere si if u guys know off any would be a great help
also trailing arms would be helpful thanks guys 
might be a good opportunity to change these to discs?

If a bearing has been proper shagged for a while it can mess up the flange, or more specifically, the part of the flange which goes in the bearing. Are you sure its bearing noise?
As above and if you're sure its the bearing, it might be easier to get a pair of different trailing arms rather than messing around with the bearing.

I'm not to sure on what atm I'm still trouble shooting and eliminating options but I just put it all back together and there is more play in te wheel than before I had the bearings done :/ plus this will be the last work I can afford to do for a few months so dunno what condition any off it will be left on jack stands

Wouldn't worry about leaving it on stands, well apart from the swansea locals knicking the stands.
I will be up and down to swansea again after christmas so could either take a look or bring parts up if you need them.
The hubs themselves are not wear parts so i doubt they have worn over the years.
Who did the bearings?
