Need rear wheel bearing ("borrow")
 
The rear wheel on our Carrera has the slightest movement, but is silent. I doubt it's the bearing having had one fail before (noisy but not loose), but just in case, I wonder if someone has one at home and could bring it to the track this weekend, and we'll bring the Sir Tools kit. If I needed to use it, I'd replace it with new (drop shipped to your home or work). Part number: 999-053-020-01. Car is on the lift and otherwise seems tight - we're hoping it's the wheel nut, which we can tighten with someone's giant torque wrench on Saturday.

I always have a set of 911 rear bearings in my track kit. FWIW I have front bearings, too. I'll be at the track this weekend.

Do you need a torque multiplier or do you already have one lined up? I'll be up there early Friday

Thanks, Jazz. I guess you got all nostalgic seeing your old engine at the tech inspection... :D

There are usually half a dozen GT3s with those giant torque wrenches and the correct socket for that nut. Shouldn't be a problem (with crossed fingers).

You can borrow my torque wrench if needed.

Thanks, Steve. Do you have centerlocks on the 951?
