Detailed Description

SKF FW166 is designed around the dimensional requirements of the bearing assembly, with a 1.653-inch inside diameter, 3.149-inch outside diameter, and 1.771-inch width. Those measurements matter for proper hub support, smooth wheel rotation, and consistent bearing seating in the knuckle or hub assembly. SKF’s long history in bearing technology supports the design approach behind this wheel bearing, with manufacturing focused on durability, motion control, and safety-conscious performance.

This part number is used across multiple import and domestic nameplates, including Mazda MX-5 Miata, Mazda 3, Mazda 6, Ford Fusion, Lincoln MKZ, and Mercury Milan applications. It also appears in fitments for Jaguar XJ8, XJR, XK8, XKR, and several Kia and Mazda platforms, making SKF FW166 a practical OE-style replacement for many front and rear wheel bearing service jobs.

What It Helps Fix

Wheel bearing noise such as humming or growling
Excessive wheel play or looseness at the hub
Rough wheel rotation caused by bearing wear
Seal-related contamination that affects bearing life
Vibration or instability traced to a worn bearing assembly

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle position before ordering; this part is listed for both front and rear applications depending on model.
Confirm hub and knuckle dimensions against the listed bearing measurements before installation.
Inspect related components such as the hub, spindle, and seals for wear before pressing in the new bearing.
Use proper bearing service tools and follow vehicle-specific torque procedures during reassembly.
For fitment verification, match the application to the exact year, make, model, and position shown in the vehicle list.

Quality Assurance

SKF manufactures bearing products to high quality standards, with an emphasis on long service life and safe operation. FW166 reflects that engineering approach for wheel bearing replacement across supported Mazda, Ford, Lincoln, Mercury, Jaguar, and Kia applications.

This part fits 148 vehicles

Always verify fitment with your vehicle's VIN if unsure. Submodel & trim restrictions may apply.
