1963-1982 Inner Rear Wheel Bearing with Race - OEM Number(s) (7451202)
The rear wheel bearing is a critical component of your Corvette's suspension system that facilitates the smooth rotation of the rear wheel hub assembly. The wheel bearing enables the wheel to rotate freely while supporting the entire weight of the vehicle. Its primary function is to reduce friction between the wheel and the axle, allowing for efficient and continuous rotation.
As your Corvette moves, the rear wheel bearing withstands the vertical and lateral forces exerted during acceleration, braking, and cornering. Over time, wear and tear on the rear wheel bearing can lead to symptoms such as noise, vibration, or uneven tire wear. Regular inspection and maintenance are essential to ensure proper functionality, promote vehicle safety, and prevent potential issues associated with a compromised rear wheel bearing.
