Shock Absorber/wheel Bearing



  Clio 172 Cup
Was wondering if anyone knows whether rear wheel bearings and rear shock absorbers are the same for an 03 Clio cup as they are for the normal sport? Also, any ideas where to get the shock cheap? Got a price of 18quid for wheel bearing minus vat for bearing, but thats not specifically for a cup.
Cheers everyone.
 
Same size etc bearings etc and shocks the same size etc but isn't the same part thwe damper were firmed up a bit.

Cheap shocks forget buy new ones

New bearings need to be pushed into the rear disk so you need a press to push the new ones in.

So if i buy the wheel bearing specified for the normal sport, will it fit my cup and be ok do you know? :S

Where can i get a rear shock absorber - any ideas? I tried Reid for speed the local motor factor, but they dont stock it. Car feels well unsteady because of it, when going round corners with bumps on it, its like the back end jumps up and follows a different route to the front!

thanking you :)

Just go to Renault and buy a rear disk, it comes with a bearing pressed in already, but yers to your first question.

Yep will fit. It need to be pushed into the disk Renault do sell new disks with bearings pushed in if you want.

Renault only is the only type I'd use unless your spending a fortune.
