I purchased a 2000 civic SI with a 96-98 jdm civic type R 5 lug conversion. My REAR wheel bearing has gone bad and I am having a hard time figuring out what kind and where to purchase a new one. I've tried to do research online but everyone always talks about the front bearing (more common) I tried buying a 1998 Prelude SH Rear wheel bearing and it didn't work.


My next option would be to try ordering a 1998 Integra type R Rear wheel bearing. Because NAPA auto parts does not have it in stock (special orders can not be returned)

HELP! Thanks in advance.

BumP.. hopeing someone has run into the same problem

 

just a guess, but maybe the CR-V rear would interchange. should be something non-special order you could try.

 

i've been told by a couple of people that the USDM ITR should work, so I went ahead and ordered it. IF it doesn't work I will give the CRV one a try
