Product Details

Timken tests the design, materials, and manufacturing process behind its bearing assemblies to support consistent fit and function. The BM500000 is engineered as a self-contained rear wheel bearing assembly for the Honda Element, with the bearing, grease, and seal integrated into one serviceable unit. This design helps reduce setup steps during replacement and supports dependable operation in rear wheel applications. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 512260, BR930496) for the same application.

Common Issues Addressed

• Rear wheel noise or growling from a worn bearing
• Excessive wheel play or looseness at the hub
• Grease contamination from a failed seal
• Service delays caused by a bearing that requires separate setup
• Repeat maintenance from a non-sealed bearing assembly

Installation Notes

Verify rear fitment before installation on 2003-2005 Honda Element models. Clean the hub and surrounding mounting surfaces, inspect related components for wear, and follow the vehicle service procedure for bearing replacement. Because the assembly is pre-greased and pre-sealed, no additional bearing packing is required.
