Timken Bearings

I'll be replacing the wheel bearings on a 2021 DRV Mobile Suites 38RSSA. I believe it has the 9K axles but don't find it listed anywhere. Anyone know for sure if it is 9K?
Also would appreciate knowing the part numbers for Timken bearings and the best place to buy them.

Does your caliper look like this? If so it's 8k. It will say KODIAK 250 on the side you can see under the RV.

Thanks for the info. Tough to see with the wheel on but it has 338HD and Kodiak beneath the number. Is that the 9K number?

Don't know for sure but I would think so.

Can you tell if it has bolts or clips holding the caliper on (8K bolts through the caliper to retain, 9K clips holding the caliper on)

338HD caliper is the 10 k caliper used on 8-10k axles.

That should mean, you have the 9K suspension.
9K axles with the 10k calipers have the calipers sitting at the 12 o’clock position and retained in the bracket by two clips.

Since you have a 38 there is a slight chance you have 8.4K axles. You should pull the wheel to get a better look.

Original 9K do have 338 calipers, I have them on our rig and I have ALSO had some VERY BAD work done by Morryde at their Service Center in IND. Just found that 5 of the 8 slide bolts were missing on my 338 calipers and Morryde says it was part failure , not their problem!!! Dexter said missing parts are installation problem, not part failure . I PAY AGAIN !!!!!!! Will NOT use MOR-LESS again !!! BUYER BEWARE

It made no sense they would not reimburse as they were clearly at fault. Happy ending!!!
