i have a 1992 240sx, and it has a 5 lug conversion. my left rear wheel bearing is going and id like to know do i get a 1995 wheel bearing or a 1992 wheel bearing? does it make a difference 4 lug or 5 lug (92' or 95')?


which should i get?

thanks!

Pretty sure it will make a difference since the s14 has a larger spindle.

Just get the s13 bearing.

^^^ He's asking about a REAR wheel bearing...

i have a 1992 240sx, and it has a 5 lug conversion. my left rear wheel bearing is going...

Most 5-lug conversions use S14 or Z32 NON-turbo rear hubs/bearings...so you need a new one of those.

I'm almost positive that S13/14 z32na rear wheel bearings are exactly the same.

Almost positive isn't a good enough answer.

The early Z32 NA will have the flanged bearing to accommodate the parking brake assembly, but if you don't have the later style anchor pin, it will work fine.

thanks for the replys, but does anyone officially know which one i should get? i just dont think doing a 5 lug conversion involves changing out the wheel bearings.. isnt it just the outer plate that has the 5 studs and thats it? or do wheel bearings come with 5 lug conversion kits?

anyone know?
plz give me an answer lol
thanks.

Used you'll get the hub with the bearing, new they come separate. Your call.
