33416775021 BMW BALL BEARING

These things basically let your wheel spin smoothly. It’s a combination of the bearing itself – which is a set of little balls inside a race – and the hub that the wheel bolts to. It allows for free rotation while still supporting the weight of the vehicle. It’s designed to handle both radial loads – the weight pushing down – and thrust loads – the force when you turn. Think of it as the connection between your suspension and the wheel. The suspension handles the bumps, and this bearing and hub assembly allows the wheel to spin freely despite those forces. Without it, the wheel would bind up and you wouldn't be able to roll easily. It's a critical part of the whole system. They’re generally on each wheel, so you've got a few of them on any vehicle. Well, a failing wheel bearing will make a lot of noise – a roaring or grinding sound that usually gets louder as you speed up. You’ll notice if one starts going bad, it's usually pretty obvious. But more seriously, a completely failed bearing can cause a wheel to lock up, which is obviously a really dangerous situation. It acts like a shield between the moving parts and the rest of the vehicle. If it fails, everything starts rubbing and wearing out quickly. You can find these parts, and a lot of others, over at Fixparts Online if you’re looking to do this yourself, or we can talk about getting it sorted out for you at the shop. They don’t last forever, you know? Eventually, the grease wears out and the bearings themselves get worn or damaged. Suitable for all conditions: Ball Bearing (MPN 33416775021) includes a 12-month warranty!
