It depends on the year your 480 is built in...
There are 2 types, the bearings that are fixed in the brakedisk and
the loose ones...
They are both pretty easy to change, for the first set you just
change the brakedisks at the rear, and for the other ones you
neet to press them out of the hub, and press the new ones in...

Anybody got a reference for theses rear bearings ?
I have a 88 turbo with no ABS and can't find one.
Worse is that the partsbook doesn't even mention theses bearings but if I can manage to get a reference number, I'll be able to get one, even straight from SKF factory ...
So far, I've been told to change the whole hub

.
Can't belive I can't get a f@#&+ng bearing anymore ...
