Lincoln Bearings
The Lincoln wheel bearing is
located in the wheel hub assembly and on a typical rear
wheel drive there will be one rear wheel bearing on each end
of the drive axle and 2 wheel bearings, one inner bearing
and one outer bearing on the front wheel hub assembly. On
Lincoln front wheel drive vehicles, the front wheel bearing
will be pressed in the front wheel hub, requires you to
remove the axle assembly and requires special equipment to
change the front wheel bearing. If you need to change the
Lincoln wheel bearing on a front wheel drive car, make sure
you check the Lincoln wheel hubs for wear. An indication
that the Lincoln wheel bearing is failing is that you will
hear a humming noise that increases with the speed of the
car and will progressively get louder as the car speed
increases. If a Lincoln front wheel bearing has failed, you
will be able to tell which Lincoln bearing has failed by
listening to how loud the bearing noise is as you turn the
car from right to left. If you turn the car to the right and
the noise gets louder, the left front wheel bearing is bad.
The opposite is also true, if you turn the car to the left
and the noise is more pronounced, the right front wheel
bearing is bad. Drivewire carries SKF, Genuine Lincoln, OE,
and aftermarket: Febi and Japan wheel bearing and wheel hub
assemblies at discount prices.
