SKF Wheel Bearing Retaining Ring P/N:CIR151
SKF Wheel Bearing Retaining Ring P/N:CIR151
$6.99

Retain your new front wheel bearing with a fresh clip instead of a rusty old one. The SKF Wheel Bearing Retaining Ring CIR151 is the C-clip that holds the bearing in place when you reassemble the hub. It is a direct-fit replacement for the 1989-1991 and 1998-2000 Chevrolet Tracker, 1989-1997 Geo Tracker, 1989-1998 Suzuki Sidekick, 1996-1998 Suzuki X-90, and 1999-2000 Suzuki Vitara and Suzuki Grand Vitara.

  • Replace, don't reuse: C-clips rust over time, and rust compromises their strength. SKF recommends fitting a new C-clip every time a hub bearing is installed.
  • Heat-treated high carbon steel: The clip is made from heat-treated high carbon steel to help prevent shape distortion.
  • Exact fit: It is engineered to OEM specifications and tolerances for an exact fit on the listed applications.
  • Bearing know-how: SKF introduced the first self-aligning ball bearing in 1907 and remains a market leader in bearing technologies.

A wheel bearing retaining ring seats in its groove to help hold the front wheel bearing in position. Replace the clip if it shows rust or corrosion, if it has lost its tension, or whenever the wheel bearing is being replaced. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine and trim details.
