The Jeeps have what is called Unit bearing or Hub Assemblies. The bearings themselves are not serviceable so you must replace the whole hub assembly when they wear out. You can check to see if replacement is needed by jacking up the wheels and grabbing the tire at 12 and 6 o'clock and push with one while pulling with the other hand back and forth feeling for play. There should be none. I'm aware that these bearing assemblies are not cheap in Australia and so that's why i'm offering them up. Shoot me an email at Jeff@Justdifferentials.com.
Hi jeff, Fantastic to see these being offered by you guys. Are they OEM units as in the same product you get from Mopar? Also with the JK bearings is the preload able to be adjusted like the earlier model Jeep unit bearings?

Might help a few here...
These are good aftermarket SKF assemblies. We have been using them in our own Jeeps at our shop for years now(just yesterday on the owners TJ). These bearings are ready to go and you will not be able to adjust preload. For the price we find them to be comparable to the OE units.
