Wheel bearing direction which side?
Hi,
I just bought 4 Timken wheel bearings to replace all 4 corners. Can someone confirm that the side with the black ring faces the car for the ABS to function correctly?
Cheers!

Hi all,
Sorry to bring this back. I pressed 3 of the 4 bearings in. However, the 4th bearing has identical sides. There is no rubber seal on one side. I tried using a magnet to detect which side was which, but both were magnetic. Is there a proper way to figure this out or should I assume the bearing was manufactured incorrectly and get a new one? I've never seen one like this.
Mind you, I ordered 4 Timken 510050 wheel bearings. 3 of the 4 are stamped made in the USA, the fourth is made in Korea.

If you take a small paper clip and place it on the bearing one side will draw the paper clip to it. The other will not.
The bearing itself has a magnetic side.
Also I did some checking the Timken number I come up with is 510039 not 510050.

Well I do not know about Amazon.
But I do know if someone walked up to my station at NAPA I would sell them a SKF FW145 which crosses to a Timken 510039.
There are no S2000 applications for a 510050 which is a SKF FW45
Just early 2000s Acura TL's Cl's and Honda Accords
