Well, maybe not as a matter of course. However, the length of that spacer is critical to bearing survival. There is no published length. So the only way is to purchase a new one and measure it. Maybe I should go measure a new one as I have them in stock and publish that on my website and here for the archives. Stay tuned, I will work on that project !
OK folks I have measured the length of that spacer. It is 41.8 mm. It has been marked as such on the listing for that part on my _Vanagon Items Forsale_ (http://members.aol.com/Fkc43/sales.htm) webpage under the "Wheel Bearings" listings. Try to remember this for next time. Maybe write it in your Bentleys !
