Mk6 Fiesta Wheel Bearings

Hi Guys,

I have a 2005 Mk6 fiesta zetec (with ABS), I suspected the wheel bearings had gone. Over the weekend I removed the hub from the rear of the car and sure enough the bearings were knackered!! I am trying to find replacement bearings but am struggling. The bearings that are in the hub at the moment are tapered roller bearings, my local motor factor and ford parts are telling me that the part should be a straight roller bearing. Has anyone changed the bearings and know whether they are supposed to be straight or tapered?

Straight roller bearing:

Tapered roller bearing:

Its a one piece bearing, but sounds from your saying its fallen apart, motor factors will have the right part, its not like the old fashioned 2 piece tappered bearing.

circlip behind the abs ring then press out bearing
