WTF Is it just me or do others ever order oem bearings and they are damaged on either the face or the edge of the bearing. I have ordered bearings from delray acura multiple times with this issue having to wait for them to send me the replacements and then hoping the replacements aren't damaged. Is there a better acura site to order them with better results without outrageous prices? This time all my damage is on the edges so would it be ok to clean up the damaged areas with emory cloth and is it safe to clean them after words with something? I am sketchy on doing this but would love to assemble this weekend.

 

Go pick them out in person and suck it up is my suggestion.

 

Dont even have an acura dealership within couple hours from where I live and they wanted almost $450 for full set of bearings. yeah it sucks in the midwest

 

Damm we get them for like $200 ouch...

 

the last 2 sets of oem bearings i ordered were damaged.

nicks in the surface and on the edges.

i even got one that was crushed out of round lol

there are only 2 warehouses in the country where dealerships get their parts. one is in cali and the other is in NJ.

 

That's actually incorrect... there's actually about 5 or 6... unfortunately when ordering the parts online though, there's no way guarantee the part is in good shape when it arrives... one of the downfalls you just have to deal with when ordering online

 

Yeah and what pisses me off there is a honda warehouse 10 miles from my house but you can't buy anything from them.

 

yeah there a warehouse here in atlanta. You telling me there isnt even a honda dealership? Usually they will get acura bearings....is it a b18c1? otherwise the b18b/b20b and b16 bearings are the same.

 

Yeah b18c, we have a honda dealership that won't sell acura parts and mark up is more than double.

 

Sounds like it's time to change from OEM to ______ to avoid the pain. Hit up Innes, he can hook it up.

 

I live in southern NH. Paypal me the money and I will go to my local honda dealership and order the parts at the counter. Then ship them to you. Just pm me and we can set that up.

 

yeah, never any issues with acl, just gotta do your due diligence and make sure the clearances are acceptable.

 

Have you tried through www.hondapartsunlimited.com ? Good pricing and both Honda and Acura parts from the same site.

 

We deal with continental, never have issues an price is good an service is great. They delivary twice a day to our shop, I understand you might be in boofoo so why not order them from a reputable shop like us

 

Good to know I will deff keep that in mind next time I order, thanks for info

 

There's also one on GA
