No, I don't have it apart yet. Weather is not good to make a replacement.
Also I'd like to be sure that I can put new bearing after removing old. That's why I asked here..
But seeing current bearing will be the best to be sure, really
May be I'll do swap somewhere at spring or even summer

Cool

Glad you've got a definite answer mate! In which case, make sure you get the oil seals to change too.
It looks like mine must be the big single bearing as you've seen that Scantech one now too, so hopefully I won't have too much trouble when I come to do it.

I wouldn't say that answer is definite..
Pre and post 86 cars have similar construction with one bearing, but which one is used can be decided only after removing old.
Post-86 doesn't have oil seals, bearing itself has that seals.
The only chance to get type without disassembling-remove break drum and see at center. According to pics, they are different, but not sure about real life.
I'll post pictures later

I now have the same issue - need the replacement part before I take the car apart.
Need a bearing for an '84 360 2.0 - anyone have a Volvo part number for this?

I have a spare Volvo bearing (double for 360) that I never used because I could not find anyone with a press to change it. In the end I just used a hub from a scrappy. Its hard enough to get the hub out, you need a huge socket and the right puller.
