Bearings replacing

Post by atroch » 26 Mar 2010 07:10 pm

Hi.

First: sorry if I use wrong names of parts. I do not know their english original names.
And sorry for stupid questions.

I need to replace bearings in rear right wheel.
My Volvo 343 is 1980. It is really difficult to get parts for it here in Poland.
I think I found what I need. But I am not sure.
So my questions are:

1. Is my type of bearing this one?
Image
2. And is this the same?
Image

What I also need to replace is this rubber thing here: (what is its english name by the way?)
Image
3. is this the same?
Image

And what made me angry, when I finally found this parts in the web, the machanician that will take care of it told me that I need to get also some nut.
In my childisch translation in english this must be "the halfshaft nut" (???).

So last but not less important thing.
4. Do you know what is this? Is this some universal nut or some extra for Volvo 300 MK 1 nut?

Rubberthing looks ok, imo, that is if measurements do match.

I don't know too much about bearings, haven't replaced them.

Bolt, hmm, there is at least several of bolts in those CV joints (thing that is at bigger end of rubber thing, I'm not too good at english words either :oops: ). Those several bolts were not too difficult to source as they had normal thread, you need one as a sample to get proper one from shop that sells bolts, that is if he meant those.

Original bolts do have allen key hole, but it is ok to replace them with normal bolts, I have seen such thing done.

Here should be some helpful documents:
