Product Details

Timken SET16 is engineered as a wheel bearing and race set for applications that require durable tapered roller bearing performance. The cone and cup dimensions are specified for accurate fitment, and the bearing design is suited to service conditions where load control and long life are important. Timken recommends replacing both the inner cone and outer cup at the same time to maintain reliability and bearing life. This part number is commonly searched for fitment on Dodge Ramcharger front outer applications, Chevrolet Corvette front and rear service, and Dodge Viper shaft-pocket locations.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Wheel bearing noise or growling from worn tapered rollers
• Excessive play caused by worn bearing surfaces
• Race damage from heat, contamination, or age
• Uneven rotation or rough hub operation
• Service issues when the cone and cup no longer match properly

Installation Notes and Tips

• Verify the vehicle position and axle configuration before ordering; this part is listed for front outer, rear outer, rear, front, rear rearward, and N/A applications depending on vehicle.
• Replace the cone and cup together to preserve bearing geometry and service life.
• Clean the hub or shaft area thoroughly before installation and inspect for scoring or pitting.
• Confirm dimensions against the existing bearing and race before pressing in the new components.
