I just used my last spare wheel bearing and picked up another on ebay uk for $30 delivered ($10 for the bearing).
They're out there all the time, but if you don't want to gamble on it actually being the right bearing if/when it turns up then jeff is the go.

hey skippy you got a 9 inch modifyed for bedford.. axels which have standard bedford wheel bearings on them. expensive!!!!! make sure the axel is alright where the bearing goes on the one that the bearing busted if the bearing has been spinning around on the axel it will have worn down the axel and you need to throw it away.

cheers

[Dano]

hey Skip, don't stres cous, I run two of these diffs ,( I think they're the best for beddies) check my gallery it has all the measure ments you'll need , part # 's too, but (just skimming over the posts) how do you know there beddie axles, try bronco bearing numbers , but mainly take the bearing and collar into a bearing supplier CBC for eg, they'll get the vernia's out and should be able to match them,mine were $130 inc collars $50 to press off/on  I'll confirm my #'s tomorrow

[SkippyThBushKangeroo]

thanks dano onya.. spent hours searchin bearing sites last night, till i could bear it no more even cut into me BF2 time online which is sacreligious.... skip

[SkippyThBushKangeroo]

re the axles posted some pics in gallery...ben checked em out seemed to think that wot they were .. also coincides with spline numbers as swb run 21 or 27 these are 21  cheers dears

soz.. just reread bens comment.. his actual comment woz  9 inch diff modifyed to bedford axles so guess theyre fords as casings are....  modifyed with the different holden stud pattern?? did you get the feeling they may be bronco axles?? would like to know its whole ID before buying...puttin a clutch in me mitsi 4WD one time .. it woz bout 60 km from shop to mitsi they gave me the wrong clutch ass 3 times. woz hoppin mad (excuse the pun ) by end of it.is there a minimum dia for the taper at the bearing end of the axles ??

[ben]

nah just lok to see if were the bearing sits has created a lip. if it has its shot unfortunatly, i have spare axels if you need one. of course youll need to get it redrilled thou.
