wheel bearing 1992 745 700 1992

posted by  someone claiming to be steve martinsen on  Wed Jul 16 14:13 CST 2003 [RELATED]

Good evening everyone:

I looks like I have to do a wheel bearing on my 1992 745 (145,000 mi. and runs strong). The job appears straight forward, but there there are 2 large hex screws fixing the caliper holder (Girling). This has to come off before I can remove the hub. As I do not have the tool in my arsenal, and to help eliminate guesswork, could anyone help me out with the size of this Allen wrench that I need?

Also, as this is the integral wheel bearing and hub, a very expensive part, does anyone have experience with the Scantek part as opposed to OEM? I am not quite comfortable with a part from the junk yard.

I would appreciate any information to make the job go easier, and any thoughts that anyone may have.

Thanks
Steve Martinsen
