Mazda OEM front bearing part number?

[Robotaz]

Anyone know the front wheel bearing OEM part number? I only got 60K out of Timkens (don't buy them). I'm going OEM this time since the first set lasted 160,000 miles with no problems. I keep seeing the parts on parts diagrams online, but they look much smaller than the ones I had installed a few years back. Thanks in advance.

*EDIT* If you could even tell me if there is an oil seal like the manual says I'd appreciate it. I'm trying to get the parts before I have to break it down since I won't have a ride if it doesn't go smoothly. I'm worried about having to take the hub somewhere to get the bearing pressed in.

The factory part number probably changes up to a Timkin or SKF bearing. Mazda doesn't make bearings.

There is a seal. They are about $10 each at my local parts place. There is also a heavy circlip which you may have to replace. You will probably have to get that from the dealer as the parts stores won't carry them.

You will have to have the bearing pressed in by a shop. If you remove the steering knuckles and take them to any shop you should be able to get that done quickly and easily. I would call around and find a place that will do it before you go.

All good advice. You might just consider searching the for sale threads. I believe there are some knuckles with new bearings pressed in and ready to go.
