Can anyone give me the timken numbers off of a set of front wheel bearings for tr3a and seal if you can. I need the inner and outer.

inner bearing-07100
inner race---07210X

outer bearing-03062
outer race---03162

Make sure the race and the bearing are a matched set. TRF sells the Timken bearing kit with a seal.

If you are bargain hunting, try out RockAuto.com - I've had good luck with them and if they have the stuff (and they do have bearings), they quite often have good prices.

I got mine from RockAuto just recently. I believe I paid about $75 for ALL four TIMKEN bearings (rollers and races). I think TRF wants $99 PER SIDE!!

Tom-

The nice thing about RockAuto is they use the manufacturer numbers - so the ones Keith reported would work. But I usually just navigate to a Triumph model, either 50's TR3 or 60's TR4, then see what it has. Unrelated to bearings, but this was a great place to buy a Speedi-sleeve for the front timing cover. Typical price is about $30, I picked one up last year for $13 (they've gone up now though).

The Timken website has a catalogue of automotive applications - the TR front wheel bearing section:

1976-1953 TR2, TR3/3A, TR4/4A, TR5, TR6
Seal (inner) ............................................................. 1110[2]
Cone/Cup (inner) .................................. 07100S-07210X[2]
Cone/Cup (outer) .......................................03062-03162[2]

The link to the whole catalogue is:

https://www.timken.com/en-us/products/Documents/BSAC1989andOlder7391.pdf

Made it easy to pick up bearings from Autozone - the only local auto store who would tell me that they stock Timken.

One other thing - I bought some wheel bearings from TRF - I wanted them for a Stag so not using one of their kits, just Stanpart part numbers - and for about $8 a bearing I expected to get no-brand Chinese bearings, but I got Timken (made in Poland, I think).

Hope that helps someone

Timken is outsourcing some stuff but their Q.C. is still to standards. I'd have no qualms about 'em. "White box" bearings on the other hand, wellll....

tdskip, rockauto uses Timken #s. I think I simply searched car year and model and it came up.

After I installed them it sure quieted things up. My old bearings, a mixture of Timken and Hoffman, didn't look bad but I could hear that distinct whirring sound when I spun 'em.
