Does anyone have a picture of the rear wheel bearing kit that fits 1972-1975 Jensen Healey? Timken and BCA use the same part number, i.e. RW109R. I saw one many years ago and remember the kit included a bearing, backing plate, and lock ring, but I'm trying to remember if there was anything else included. Thanks.

For what it's worth, attached is a photo of what is supposed to be the QH bearing kit. I have not personally examined the parts in question and therefore can not vouch for their correctness.

Thanks for your quick reply and picture, Mark. I now believe I was mistaken in saying that the Timken and BCA part number RW109R include a backing plate. I think Green Ball Bearing used to make the backing plate for RW109R, but I don't remember their part number for it. I didn't notice a backing plate in your picture, Mark. Maybe the '72-75 Healey doesn't require it...? In any event, Timken has a part number RP109, and I think this is the item I'd like to see pictured. What I saw years ago was from a distributor that packed RW109R and RP109 together, selling it as a kit. I'm still trying to remember if there is any hardware that goes with it, or if it was just the bearing, lock ring, and backing plate....

Attached is a modified factory parts drawing showing the parts in question. Naturally, each axle requires a full set of them. The highlighted items are:

Great drawing, Mark! I found it--together with your information that the retaining plate is generally reusable--even more helpful than your original picture. I wondered why some aftermarket distributors neglect to offer the plate, or as in Timken's case, sell the plate separately. Thanks a lot for the benefit of your knowledge and the promptness with which you shared it.
