Front wheel bearing

[Specky]

As most of the links are obsolete, here's a new one

£30 for a pair + £7 P+P (They are chuffing heavy)

Here's another bearing, about £40 a pair.

Each bearing comes with two circlips (and a split pin)

The Lotus ELAN M100 Front Bearings cross references supplied seem to only be available in UK and Germany. I have some other cross references easily obtainable in the USA below. I went w/ the FAG which are German made. If you want a car sold in USA to have someone search for or just buy BMW (FAG) bearings, the 96-98 BMW Z3 RoadsterL4 - 1.9L 1895cc type M44 - MFI GAS DOHC use the same bearings.

TIMKEN 513113

BECK/ARNLEY 051-3912
QUINTON H QWB436
ACDelco FW131 (mfg by Timken)
GM 88936180
NATIONAL 513113

The Timken cross reference manual shows the OEM SKF part BAHB 311396B mapping to the #s above. Other sources show the 513113 coming up if they have listing for Lotus Elan M100.

Matt, I think this is what you are looking for!

SKF VKBA736 is I think the kit,but I've always had to reuse the circlips as they are often the wrong size.

Hi Simon! I did go off of this thread. I ended up finding a set of bearings for $11 US each. RockAuto actually lists a whole bunch for the Elan! They fit the ID/OD/Width requirements:

Folks,

I actually pulled the old bearings out and looked at the part # on them. Put them back in and ordered the replacements I mentioned in post several years ago.
The bearings were as previously mentioned

But I went w/ the German ones. As I had to replace the SKF at fairly low mileage and don't track the car. I do autocross it, might have caused some stress.
