Datsun 1200 GX 1975 model imported from South Africa - back wheel bearings

Subject: Datsun 1200 GX 1975 model imported from South Africa - back wheel bearings
by jc_olivier on 2021/1/19 7:16:48

Dear Datsun 1200 club

I imported a Datsun 1200 GX Coupe 1975 model from South Africa to Australia during November 2011. It has 133000 km on the clock, completely original and runs beautifully. However the back wheel bearings are noisy, and I want to replace them. For some reason the parts stores in Australia cannot source the right parts (bearings) for me. Can this forum please help me: what are the back wheel bearing sizes (specifications) on the South African Datsun 1200 GX 1975 model?

I had little trouble in finding the right front wheel bearings (parts), so those have been replaced. It has disc brakes in front.

They have now twice given me wrong parts for the back bearings. It seems the South African 1200 GX model has different bearings than the Datsun 1200 that was sold in Australia. This is what is causing the problem apparently.

Any help/advice would be highly appreciated.

regards

JC
