tire 10 Report post Posted July 16, 2009 Hey fellas. Need to get a spigot bearing for my m20 e30 as I am doing the manual conversion this weekend, no parts places can get one in by tomorrow so my only option is to get a generic one from a bearing shop tomorrow. Questions: -Is this possible or does it have to be genuine? -What does it look like, like are there any special grooves in it or stuff like that? -Are there any specifics about the bearing I should know? I've got the dimensions as 12x32x10 on realoem. As you can see, I know FA so if you could help me get this sorted thatd be great! Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
