Wheel bearings

[1ricardo]

Dear Friends

I´m rebuilding this 1976 911 and because I´m not in USA and buy parts from pelican for instance it´s not that easy, I wonder what are the sizes or codes for the
2 front wheel bearings
1 rear wheel bearing
So, I can try to find out here in Brazil a bearing shop to buy them

Thanks

Ricardo

Have you taken the Porsche part numbers to your bearing supplier to have them reference the correct parts. I believe they are reasonably common bearings, every local part store I go to can get them easily.
It appears 76 bearings are identical to 87 so this is what I see on the boxes on my part shelf.
Front outer SKF brand, BR2, (smaller unit) more numbers include 346K 339 2H1E 1BI2 that all may be junk
Front inner SKF brand, BR6 VP, (larger unit) lots of little numbers I'm sure are junk.
I looked on-line, the SKF BR2 and BR6 seem to get you to the correct parts.
I've never done the rears.
