I have stripped out the rear axle shafts on my SJ413 "1989" to replace the bearings, quite easy really so pleased. ordered and got the new bearings and they dont fit ?
KWB 450 WHEEL BEARING KIT , comes up everywhere as fitting mine.
I have a rocklobster box do you think they may have changed axle as well ? the wheel bearing is miles too small.
any one else had this problem ?

I'm certain that all the sj range uses the same bearing.

It sounds to me like its just an incorrect part. But maybe worth puting
Up a photo of the rear axle just in case someone's fitted a modified
Vitara axle on the rear.

Where did the bearing come from?

Looking on ebay it seems thats a kit for a jimny and not a 413/samurai...
