SKF Wheel Bearing Kit P/N:WKH593
$94.99

Keep the front wheels turning smoothly and quietly with the SKF Wheel Bearing Kit WKH593. This front-position kit is a direct-fit replacement for a long run of air-cooled-era front-drive Volkswagens, including the 1981-1987 Volkswagen Atlantic, 1980-1984 Volkswagen Jetta, 1976-1984 Volkswagen Rabbit, 1980-1984 Volkswagen Rabbit Convertible, 1980-1983 Volkswagen Rabbit Pickup, and the 1976-1988 Volkswagen Scirocco.

A front wheel bearing supports the vehicle's weight at the wheel while letting the wheel and hub rotate with minimal friction, so restoring it helps quiet the corner and remove play.

  • Front position: serves the front wheel bearing location on the listed applications.
  • Direct-fit replacement: built to swap in for the listed Volkswagen applications.
  • Purpose-built kit: replaces a worn or noisy front wheel bearing to restore smooth wheel rotation.

Signs a front wheel bearing may need replacing include a humming or growling noise that changes with vehicle speed or during cornering, and looseness or play felt at the wheel. Diagnose the cause before replacing, since these symptoms can have other sources.
