Timken Wheel Bearing P/N:15578
Keep the rear wheels of your classic Chrysler or Dodge turning smoothly with this Timken wheel bearing, part number 2780, a tapered roller bearing cone cataloged for the rear / rear inner position. It is a direct-fit replacement for many vehicles, among them the 1953-1956 Chrysler Town & Country, 1954-1955 Dodge C-1 and 1948-1950 Dodge B-1, with the full list in the "Vehicles it fits" section.

A wheel bearing lets the wheel rotate smoothly and helps support the vehicle's load at the axle. A growling or humming noise that changes with road speed, roughness when the wheel is turned, or excess wheel play are signs a wheel bearing may need replacing. Diagnose the cause first. If a worn rear cone is the problem, this part replaces it.
