WANTED inner axle bearings part no 211401321a Please help

My van just failed it's mot for too much play in the steering and when I took it in to the garage they told me I needed these bearings which they can't source. At first they thought it was just the ball joints but as it happens they are ok. They said the alternative is a whole new front end looking at basically 1000 pounds!!!!

If anyone has any ideas about where I could get these please help. I can't afford a whole new front end.

Thank you so much.

Hi mark

Thanks for looking. Yeah thats the right part. They only searh uk for parts. That shop is in California. I think I will have to get them imported.

It's jacks garage in london. I think they know there stuff butt I don't.

 

Burgess Hill is not in America !!!

 

Can the torsion arm bushes be removed from an old beam and refitted ?
If so I have an old beam here yours for £15.00 collected !!!???

 

Me again ...
In stock VW Heritage £17.50 each

Be cheaper to buy and fit new front beam !!!!

 

I would change garage !!!

 

I will change them for £975 ... anyone want to help ??

 

What about the late bay discount would bring it down to £900;-p

 

Too much play in the steering could be anything ,I would have thought its very difficult to check these bearings plus they don't have any input in the steering only suspension .

 

Looks like it might be more than £950 then lol

 

What he said. Jack's garage replaced a gearbox for one of my customers when it was a CV joint that needed replacing.

 

Thanks for all the replies.

Stevebay, I believe the part you spotted at vw heritage is for the outer bearing where the one i'm after is the inner bearing. I called vw heritage and they couldn't find that part I needed. Also, I'd be concerned about getting this bearing second hand because I couldn't know how worn it is already.

For now i'm definitely not going to replace my front end. Thanks for the offers though and if it ever comes to it I will look here first before going to any garage. I have decided to just import the bearings from the US as they said we could have em here by next week sometime.

 

By the way steve, If you click on your icon then map, it says you live in Surrey British Columbia. I assume you know this already though but thought a bit funny as i'm already getting these bearings from the west coast of north america...
