Offgrid is correct in the above kit that you will need.  After 8 years and 28,000 miles I made the choice to replace ours on the 177 a year ago.  It wasn't necessary but since it was already pulled apart I replaced them anyway, I was only out $20 for both sets of bearings and seals from the local auto parts store and timewise I spent 1 hour/hub, not a big deal.


Jato, wish you would of taken photos and posted them and write up of replacing bearings. I believe it would help allot of Pod owners who are looking at doing the same now or later. It all sounds easy but we all know how easy goes sometimes! Star

Its probably this kit you want but check the label on your axle and call etrailer to confirm.

You'll need to have a seal puller and bearing grease in your toolbox also of course.

Always like to travel with an extra  set of wheel bearings.  Does anyone know which bearing fits the 190?  (I imagine they are all the same).]]> Tue, 14 Jan 2020 09:19:03 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=13352&PID=128845#128845
