Can anybody help me with the "F" number on the lower bearing in the axle beam? The lower has a partnumber 311401301C. This number is stampled in the the same place as the partnumber so you have to look at a bearing if you have one. This can help me to get new bearings from a local shop.

311401301 C
311401301 D
311401301 A
311401305
311401305 A 310-1827 A (DURKOPP)
310-2230 (DURKOPP)
310-2231 (DURKOPP)
310-1575 JP (DURKOPP)
310-2229 (DURKOPP)

Check the technical section. There is a bearing cross referance from VW numbers to OE number.

The list above did not quite copy and paste right.

He is talking about the bearings in the beam, not the wheel bearings.

Oh, the NLA needle bearings! It still seems like Bearings Inc. could sell you the appropriate needle bearings! I've got complete good 67 & 72 beams in the barn For Sale. PM me.

P.S. I just shipped the 67 transaxle to Japan.

the lower bearings come up for sale occasionally. Just bought a set from Australia. Granted, the were made in Brazil by FAG, but they look good. As for the upper bearings - about as easy to find as front gravel guards. Laughing I know of two NOS sets - one on this side of the Atlantic, and a set on the other side. Wink

These bottom ones are OE size - not oversized (which you can't install unless you have the appropriate Matra tool)

I have 18 NOS ones of those...

I have the OE size of the lower '62 only ones too if someone needs them

The outer diameter is oversized - you need to ream the beam itself
Only when the bearing falls out I guess

You need OE sizes

So that means that when I have dismounted the bearing(did not come out easy) I use the stock OE size. Well BerT3 I need 311401301C x 2 and 311401305 x 2. Am I right?
