Wheel bearings

Moped car wheel bearing

The wheel bearing ensures smooth and friction-free rotation of the wheel and connects the wheel to the fixed structure of the suspension. A good wheel bearing is important for quiet wheel rotation, stable road holding and correct wheel alignment. Minicar-Parts supplies wheel bearings for all well-known brands, including Aixam, Microcar, Ligier, Chatenet, JDM, Bellier, Grecav and Casalini.

Worn wheel bearings on a moped car often cause a humming, droning or grinding sound while driving, which increases at higher speeds. Other symptoms are play in the wheel, vibrations in the bodywork and uneven tyre wear. Wheel bearings on moped cars are generally suitable for multiple brands and models, making replacement easier than with brand- and model-specific parts.

There are a number of important points to note when replacing wheel bearings. Many wheel bearings need to be pressed in and require a hydraulic press or special bearing tools. Incorrect installation can immediately damage the new bearing. Always press on the correct bearing ring, as force on the wrong ring can cause the bearing to fail prematurely. On some moped cars the wheel bearing is integrated into the wheel hub, in which case the complete wheel hub is replaced. On other designs the wheel bearing is often lost when removing the wheel hub and must always be replaced. When replacing, also check the wheel hub and steering knuckle for wear or damage, as a worn fit can cause the new bearing to wear much more quickly. Individual wheel hubs are available in the category wheel hubs and steering knuckles in the category steering knuckles.

The range includes wheel bearings from Bonq as a reliable alternative and original bearings from the relevant moped car brand.
