Home › Vehicles › Chevy › Chevrolet Camaro › 1993-2002 Chevy Camaro Wheel Bearing Part Numbers
The short version
- A 2002 Camaro wheel bearing job up front uses one number for the whole 1993 to 2002 run: 513090.
- The rear is a live axle with tapered bearing sets, part number SET9, and each side needs its own set.
- Ten model years, one front hub number, one rear set number, no changes in between.
- The rear falls under axle bearing territory rather than a bolt on hub.
Across the whole 1993 to 2002 run, the fourth generation Camaro kept a live rear axle under the trunk floor. A 2002 Camaro wheel bearing job at the front is a straightforward hub swap. The rear is a different job entirely, built around tapered bearing sets rather than a cartridge.

The front hub bearing, 513090, covers every 1993 to 2002 Camaro regardless of engine or trim.

This page covers the 1993-2002 Chevy Camaro: 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002. Other years live on the main Camaro wheel bearing page.
The rear is a live axle, not a bolt on hub, so a 2002 Camaro wheel bearing order for the rear means an axle bearing set, not a hub assembly.
SET9 covers the pattern for both sides, but each side still needs its own set purchased separately. One set number does not mean one box for the car.
Year by year
Every model year from 1993 through 2002 uses the same front hub number and the same rear set number. Nothing splits by engine, whether V6 or V8. A 1993 needs the identical parts as a 2002.
A 2002 Camaro wheel bearing order needs nothing beyond 513090 and SET9, the same as any earlier year in the run.
One rear axle across two body updates
This fourth generation Camaro carried the same live axle rear for its full ten year run, spanning both the earlier and later body styling. The front hub number and rear set number never changed alongside those cosmetic updates.
The later 2010 to 2015 Camaro moved to a different rear setup entirely and does not share numbers with this generation.
Diagnosing a Chevy Camaro wheel bearing
- Separate front from rear first. The front is a hub swap, while the rear means pulling the axle and its tapered set.
- Listen for a hum that builds with speed. Noise that shifts in a turn often points to a bad bearing.
- Jack up the front corner. Rock the wheel at 12 and 6 o’clock for play in the hub.
- Check rear axle fluid and seals. A failing tapered set often shows metal shavings in the gear oil.
- Repack or replace based on wear. Repacking a tapered set is possible if the races are not pitted.
Common questions
What is the 2002 Camaro wheel bearing part number?
Front is 513090. Rear is SET9, a tapered bearing set for the live axle, needed separately for each side.
Does a 1993 Camaro use the same wheel bearing as a 2002?
Yes. Both years share the same front hub number and the same rear set number with no changes in between.
Is the fourth generation Camaro rear a live axle?
Yes. The rear uses a live axle with tapered bearing sets rather than a bolt on hub assembly.
How many SET9 bearing sets does a Camaro rear axle need?
Two. SET9 covers the pattern for one side, so each side needs its own set.
Can the Camaro rear wheel bearing be repacked instead of replaced?
Sometimes. If the tapered races are not pitted or scored, repacking the set is an option instead of full replacement.
