I am looking for a fan hub bearing for the 2.8 CRD engine. Does anyone know of a bearing that works in the fan hub assembly? |

I've looked extensively, and can't source the bearing. The cost of a new assembly makes an electric fan conversion more sensible as those fan hub bearings are only good for right about 150k miles |

With the fan removed, the belt still goes over the fan hub pulley. |

I've tried a few different ways. Pressing out the bearing and install a bigger pulley where the idler that mounts on the fan mount is, is the easiest. Just takes a little bit of work to get the right sized belt. There's a thread on here that has the part numbers. I would go that route as I've had trouble with the other configurations. I'll look for the thread |

Use that exactpulley, as I used a different gates pulley and it split every belt I put on it, couldn't figure out why though... |

Has a search for a shaft bearing been done? The bearing in question looks a lot like a shaft bearing, similar to what many water pumps have. That is its a double row with the shaft being an integral part of the bearing. I have replaced these sorts in water pumps (not VM 428). Just a thought |
