Hi Guys,
First post on the forum. but long time lurker.
I love my G.

Anyways, My two front bearings are shot, and from the lurking, it appears this happens to alot of G35s

Im not very mechanically inclined, and would like to ask if these are the bearings I need?

My mechanic buddy says he will pop them on for free.
Just need to buy the parts.

Do I have the right ones for a 2008 G35X?

Thanks in advance for all the help guys.

 

I'm not sure how the 08 guys do it but we in the pre 07 crowd buy the hubs pre-pressed because it's usually easier to install and the price is not much more. Are you sure it's not just bad tires?

 

Im pretty sure its the bearings, my mechanic buddy told me a few weeks back that I should get them changed, and that theyll be shot soon.
and now they are shot haha.

I live in Canada, and im having a hard time finding the pre-pressed ones from companies that ship here.

 

I just just bought these from amazon... mechanic was quoting me $932 for quality bearings... I felt that was WAAAY overly priced... so I hunted and noticed Timkens seem to be pretty good. Ordered both from Amazon which seems to have the best price versus ebay or amazon.ca (live in canada...)

I'll try to reupdate this thread once it's installed and running, plus another report months later to do another review.

 

Unsure if true for the 07+, But Timkin is using the OEM bearings manufactured by NTN. They are just a distributor so when I ordered an OEM and timkin bearing, they were both manufactured by NTN in Japan.
