id like to hear this answer too...although, i think they would be the same.

when i put my 300zx rear hubs on they came with the bearing already attached. the holes from the 300zx bearing lined up with the stock holes on the s13 (where the s13 bearing was). so i would assume you could use either.

Hubs and bearings are one peice for the S13/S14/Z32, etc...

Thery are a sealed unit, pressed in...cannot be changed or serviced.

When you buy 5-lug rear hubs, the bearings come with it, no exceptions.

not me.....i have hubs with no bearings......the bearings can be changed if you have a machine to press them in with........i have a set of brand new 240sx rear wheel bearings but i wanted to make sure i could use them with the hubs. im not sure if they are the same or not.

Weird...never heard of such a thing.

I was under the impression they were sealed, not serviceable...?

for the price of new wheel bearings you might as well buy a new hub.

I am on the same boat. I have a S13 and bought the S14 rear 5 lug hub only. Didn't purchase the S14 bearing. I will find out if it works when I get it apart.

answer this age old question....

so does this work? s13 wheel bearing work with S14 Hub

S13/S14/S15/Z32 rear hubs all use the same bearing. It is serviceable, though you need a press to get it out.

The fronts, S13s are serviceable, S14/S15 are not, they're one piece and not rebuildable.

do s13/s14/s15/z32 rear wheels bearings/hubs look the same.

i have a set of s14 rear hubs and bearings and tonight i bought some z32 na hubs supposedly. i checked to make sure they were the same size and they were, but the hub on the z32 looked more of a rounder star than the s14. the only weird thing is was that on one of the z32 wheel bearings there seemed to be extra metal sticking out with a hole. is that normal? i figured i could just grind it down. do z32 and s14 wheel bearings look different?
