That's it Andyc.  Correct.

 Search the baring number. A baring on its own does not come up. Only the complete unit. That is because they are one in the same.

As said, I'm not waisting any more time tools etc with this until a supplier can be found for a complete baring unit that presses in to the hub. Show me one of those purchased ready for pressing and I'll take it further

But don't waist your time. All you'll find is the complete unit.

It will be two separate bearings similar to andyc's picture,but as you say if the bearings cant be sourced then its a pointless exercise


just found this on fleabay,wondering now if its a monoblock bearing fitted like the one in the add.

Looks like a rear to me tbh. I know it says front, but there's no red seal like that involved on the front that I've seen.

Yeah,could be that they've ballsed up

I'm guessing the picture is a generic bearing not an Omega one, but at that price would you be getting the hub as well?

[andyc]

Interesting! The Carlton Hub is the same as the Omega, gone on chris you know you want to

And are the bearings available separately or is it a complete hub as well ?

[Andy B]

There no point discussing this, nobodys listening

least of all ......... you!

The only thing removable from the hub is the abs stator, that's pressed on.

Other than that there is no break in the internal machining surfaces to allow a baring race to be removed. There's bluing from hardening process evident.

Andy that's just obtuse. I have the thing here in front of me on the bench.

ah, the Shawshank education system live and well in Bury I see.

[Marks DTM Calib]

Your wrong Chris, the race you consider to be part of the hub isnt, its an insert and can be removed.

AndyC.....can you please confirm what part number 90510542 is 

I know I could get that race out in about 30 mins tops.

Lol, I will have to login to channel21, the description I had was 'Front; Saloon; Wheel Bearing Kit; Ø 74mm'

[Marks DTM Calib]

Just to put an engineering slant on this, bearing steel has to be hard and hence is brittle, if the whole hub was made of it then it would potentialy crack and fracture, it would also be very pricey.
