OUR ONLINE CHECKOUT is CLOSED and we are NOT accepting any NEW orders at this time.

We are still fulfilling and shipping previously submitted and/or delayed order requests (as product availability allows) UNTIL NOVEMBER 15th 2022.

But after November 15th, all still pending backordered unshipped items will be automatically CANCELLED **(except for any special ordered drop-shipped or made/machined-to-order items).

Our ability to respond to emails is greatly hampered by being under-staffed during this downsize transition time. But we continue to endeavor to answer email inquiries as best we can. And we will continue responding to emails through until early March 2023 because we are wholly committed to resolving any other issues that may arise from previous sales. It is still UNCERTAIN, but we may re-open a substantially downsized version of our store again in the Spring of 2023.

We sincerely appreciate your patience, understanding during this period of restructuring and/or closing. And a huge thank you to all of you whose support and loyalty we have been the beneficiary of over the 23 years that we have worked diligently to support the information and parts needs of the aircooled VW community!

Wheel Bearing, Front Inner, Roller Bearing, 1966-68 Type 1 and 1962-68 Type 3, 311-405-625
Wheel Bearing, Front Inner, Roller Bearing, 1966-68 Type 1 and 1962-68 Type 3, 311-405-625


 
Wheel Bearing, Front Inner, Roller Bearing, 1966-68 Type 1 and 1962-68 Type 3, 311-405-625 is a high quality tapered roller bearing. If a wheel bearing goes bad, be sure to replace BOTH BEARINGS, because metal from the first failure has ruined the 2nd one.

In 1968 VW changed the spindles on Beetles, Ghias, and Type 3s. This change required them to change the inner bearing, for the new (thicker) spindle shaft. The problem with this is that both early BJ and late BJ spindles are interchangeable, so you'll see many 66-68 Beetles and Ghias with late spindles (especially if changed over to disc brakes), and sometimes 68 and later Beetles with earlier spindles (usually due to an accident when a used spindle replaced the damaged one). Because of this it's important to check your old bearing inner diameter before ordering new ones.

The EARLY inner bearing fits 1.070" (27mm) spindles, while the LATE inner bearing fits the spindles that are approximately 1.130" (29mm). It's pretty important that you measure the bearing or your spindle to ensure you have to unexpected delays or headaches!
