[Vwdiesel] A2 front wheel bearing tips?

[gary]

When I replaced the front bearings on my Quantum TD a couple of years
ago, they came out intact and definitely reusable.

Well, not really, they were completely dry and I had already purchased
new bearings.

I would have to be completely broke and desperate to reuse old bearings
in this day and age. Trust me, if there were a corner, I would know how
to cut it!
