Installation Notes

Verify bearing dimensions, position, and vehicle application before installation. Differential bearings should be installed with proper press tools and set up to the manufacturer’s specifications for preload and alignment. Confirm the original bearing reference and side designation on Ford Fiesta, Ford Focus, or Ford Courier applications before final assembly.
