Re: off road tyres t31
I would have to look up the specs on the bearing, but considering others I have checked, the bearings are usually well over-rated for the application, and the small extra weight/leverage/newtons of force increase from the larger heavier tyres should be miniscule compared to the bearing's rated load capacity. And no, there's no such thing as "4WD bearings", there are just different categories of bearings, like the type of seals used, and the 'clearance', like "C3". I can't think of anything other than changing the dimensions of the bearing that would increase the load capacity, including 'way out there' things like ceramic rollers instead of steel.
If anyone knows the bearing number, I'd be happy to look up the specifications from a couple of different manufacturers. (Nissan do not make their own custom bearings, no car manufacturer does. They will be something like SKF, NTN, Nitto, Timken, Denso, something we can find.)
--- 2004 T30 series II, Ti (now sold)
JRR50 Pathfinder, QD32ETi Turbo Diesel, with 'lots o fruit'.
2012 Jeep Cherokee KK CRD Limited is current ride.
Will be looking for a white or silver 2011-2013 T31 TL (Diesel) to "pimp out".
