I’m not a fan of that….

I love it, gets my attention every time

I know I’m stating the bleeding obvious, but is there a SKF distributor close by? We have Brammers in the local city 30mins away and I was just wondering if you had the same sort of thing there to service the local industry

Run out of cats?

The new glasses have improved the aim on the shotgun...

...or...

You perfected the cat throwing skill?

Don’t need any of them when you got Mr Larson on your side

 

[Scotch mist]

I'm wondering if it's all stemmed from the sticking brake pads and it's maybe overheated everything on the rear hub. Shoes bearing etc.

That was my first thought

 

[Nyvern]

Another possible place for bearing.

Right we phoned iveco this morning they wanted £172 for the genuine iveco aka skf wheel bearing ... told them to sod off.
Could get genuine iveco skf bearing delivered from ebay by ups tomorrow for £56 but we thought we'd go try that bearing place in redruth .. and he can get the skf bearing in for tomorrow lunchtime for £53 so just ordered that and will pick it up tomorrow. Going to get everything degreased and cleaned up today and the new brake shoes fitted. Will also clean and grease the pistons and sliders on the brake caliper so everything is nice and free . And hopefully have the whole thing reassembled by tomorrow afternoon.

£53 thats more like it, Genuine OE part prices are taking the pee, after all they are SKF not Iveco.
Easy way to con a profit aint it? Fiat Professional/Iveco garages have us by the short & curlies when its in their hands, and we are not given a choice.
I hope the N&B Axel Gear & Brakes are not needing the same overhaul, although you & smithy should have the hang of how to service them by now.

Yeah iveco buys the bearings from skf multiplies the price by 4 and then adds vat .. and then they say but I'll give you discount on the part ... but it still ends up 3 times the price they buy it.

Good work if you can get it eh?


Everyone else sells it for between £50-90

A long time ago when i had one of my VW split screen campers I needed to replace the reduction gears bearings. VW wanted an arm and a leg for them and said it would take a while to get them.So i went to a local bearing business in Barnstaple at the time with one of the bearings and the guy disappeared for a couple of minutes and came back with the bearings I wanted. He said they fit a number of different things. Funny thing was the bearing shop was less than five minutes walk away from the main VW dealership.

Well Tam I’m in for MOT just now and the handbrake has just fired the van straight off the rollers with a “f### me, that handbrake is good” from the tester
We’ll see how the rest of the test goes

 

[gus-lopez]

ven the v4 says Ford rather than iveco. Ford fiat iveco changed names a lot

yes Ford were tied up with iveco originally. who supplied what though I've no idea?

 

[TinaLes]

Just thinking about it, we had to bomb the SKF bearing company in WW2, they were supplying The Germans too many bearing's at the time. Just as well they got back up and running again eh?

What chassis are you on ?
Apparently the n&b was good .

I think the garage last year didn't adjust the shoes properly either.

Fingers crossed for you Tam. son had an Iveco camper, converted from a sitter ambulance, it was a 'mare to get parts for, fuel economy was non existent, but he lived in it while he did his degree.

The one I have now is iveco too but a bit older. Always managed to get the parts it's just the registration number brings up ford motorhome and half the motor factor people are too daft to realise its just a platform chassis. I've gotta tell them all the time then they find them

Is this bit supposed to look like this?

Correct, but they are usually of inferior quality.

Easy way to con a profit aint it? Fiat Professional/Iveco garages have us by the short & curlies when its in their hands, and we are not given a choice.

You do have a choice, you buy it elsewhere, but it may not be the same. My relevant experience comes from being an official Yamaha Jet Ski dealer for Las Palmas for many years and I hope this might be helpful to you.

We sold jet skis to all the hire companies on the island and also in Lanzarote and Fuerteventura. These guys can rack up over 1.000 hours per jet ski in a year so obviously their maintenance is high. The number one failure is the turbine bearings - there are three of them. Now the bearings are not made by Yamaha, but they are made to Yamaha standards. The rent guys can buy locally for around half the Yamaha price and they work fine, but for around 6 months but then they need changing again. The Yamaha OEM bearings can, and normally do, last over a year. So in the end they all bought OEM from us.
