Just wondering if anybody can help identify the bearing size in the rear of a 944 S2 ? All dimensions etc.

Apparently it's the same bearing as used in the '84-'89 911 Carrera and Turbo.

Been doing some work with a bearing company recently and have the opportunity to trial some of their bearings for myself and see what the quality/lifespan is like, but I need the exact dimensions to try and make a match with their stores guy !!

Can anybody offer any help, or direct me to a good industry catalogue where I can reference numbers etc. I've tried googling but no joy so far.

Cheers.

Presumably you'll have to be very patient to see what the lifespan is?
