1999 X5 Front Carrier Update
I just looked at real oem they don't show an outer CV part number for the earliest 99 production. What month/year is production?
You may have to replace the whole CV

its a 12/99 build date, and Meyle makes a CV repair and i'm sure it's not for the pre 04/00 versions. If the splines aren't the same i'll have to replace both axle shafts, therefore more doubt as to the fit in the transfer case.

So RealOEM is suggesting all the items necessary for exchange of old components to updated ones. Wow! what and expense. I think i'm going to search for some part outs. Good thing is that they're showing the newer axles will fit the trans axle

Wow didn't catch the inner diameter specs being the same, mating surface on the CV joint looks larger on the newer style. I guess I could just get a hub and see if it will work with existing CV splines.

Andrew, on your previous post about not listing an earlier style hub, at the bottom of the realOEM list for front axle, there is a wheel bearing kit along with other kits, that has the hub with the old part number. But as you said if the inner diameter is the same i don't see a reason the axle cv end won't fit.

I have a new front wheel bearing for my car sitting in a box at home (long story) - I'll confirm the OD and ID tonight. Just to remove any doubt about the bearing size nomenclature at least.

The new bearing measures: - OD: 90mm ID: 49mm Width: 45mm This means the smaller bearing is: - OD: 85mm ID: 41mm Width: 45mm Which means that the hub and the carrier must be different.... so they'll all need to be replaced - or located at a wrecker.

So just measured bearing I pressed out (twice).
Overall width - 85mm Inner race width - 45mm Depth width - 41mm Although, new style hub would work but, would bottom out, the cv end would not rest on the inner bearing surface but the hub. |
