- Cylindrical roller bearing: SKF lists R1561-F as a cylindrical roller bearing for the axle shaft.
- Heat treated: Heat-treated to extend service life.

- SKF quality: SKF design and quality you can count on. Engineers, technicians and mechanics have turned to SKF for more than 100 years.
The axle shaft bearing supports the rear axle shaft inside the axle housing so the shaft can rotate freely under load. Signs this part may need replacing include a humming, growling or grinding noise from the rear that changes with road speed, or play at the axle shaft. If a worn bearing is the cause, replacing it with R1561-F addresses the problem. Diagnose the source before ordering, and consult the vehicle service information for the related seal and installation procedure.
The listed applications also include the Cadillac Brougham and Fleetwood, Dodge Dakota, D150, W150 and Ramcharger, Ford E-250 Econoline and E-350 Super Duty vans, Lincoln Mark LT and Plymouth Trailduster.
