Detailed Description

FAG 102434 is a rear wheel bearing specified for select full-size Cadillac, Lincoln, and Buick models, including Cadillac DeVille rear wheel bearing applications, Lincoln Continental rear wheel bearing service, and Buick Roadmaster rear wheel bearing replacement. The bearing dimensions are the primary reference points for confirming proper axle and hub fitment, especially on older vehicles where exact sizing matters.

FAG develops and manufactures roller bearings, spherical bearings, and plain bearings for a wide range of industrial and automotive uses, and this part reflects that bearing-focused engineering background. For catalog and interchange reference, part number 102434 also aligns with SKF RW509-FR and Timken RW509FR.

Common Issues This Part Can Address

• Rear wheel bearing noise during driving
• Excessive wheel play or looseness at the rear axle
• Rough rotation or bearing drag in the hub area
• Wear-related service needs on classic Cadillac, Lincoln, or Buick rear assemblies
• Dimensional mismatch when replacing an existing rear bearing

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the bearing dimensions against the removed part before installation, especially on vintage rear axle assemblies. Inspect the hub, axle surfaces, and related seals for wear or scoring, and confirm that the bearing seats fully and evenly during assembly. Because this is a rear application, confirm the vehicle’s rear axle configuration and compare the part number 102434 with the original bearing markings before final installation.
