Product Details
The SKF FW44 wheel bearing is designed around the listed dimensions to support accurate hub and wheel assembly service. SKF’s bearing expertise dates back to the development of the first self-aligning ball bearing in 1907, and that engineering background carries into components made for long service life and safe operation. This part number, FW44, is used in Land Rover LR2 rear applications and Freelander front and rear applications where the sealed bearing specification is required.
Fits 2008-2015 Land Rover LR2, rear. Fits 2002-2005 Land Rover Freelander, rear. Fits 2002-2005 Land Rover Freelander, front.
What It Helps Address
- Wheel bearing noise such as humming or growling from the hub area
- Excessive wheel play or looseness at the bearing assembly
- Rough wheel rotation caused by wear or contamination
- Seal failure that allows dirt or moisture into the bearing
- Fitment issues when replacing the original Land Rover bearing with the correct dimensions
Installation Notes and Tips
Confirm hub dimensions and position before installation, especially on Land Rover LR2 rear and Freelander front or rear applications. Inspect the hub, axle, and surrounding components for wear or scoring before pressing in the new bearing. Use proper bearing service tools and follow the vehicle service procedure to avoid damage to the sealed bearing.
Quality Assurance
SKF manufactures bearings to strict quality standards focused on durability, motion control, and safe operation. FW44 is built as a sealed wheel bearing for consistent performance in the specified Land Rover applications.
