Yes, it is, I just checked with my dealer here in Ottawa last
week. Cap, bearing retainer, 091 301 197 - $6.12. AND, I too have those
bearing kits, right here in Canada, no need to import them from the USA, from
my _Vanagon New Parts_ (http://frankcondelli.com/sales.htm) webpage >
Bearing kit, rear wheel, 5994, (1) 211 501 283D, (1) 211 501 287, (2) 211 501
317, (1) cotter pin - $45.90. AND, you had better check the length of the
spacer as it is of critical importance > Spacer, rear wheel bearings, 42.8
mm long, 211 501 281 E - $39.95. The price is for the ones I have in
stock. They were still available from VW last time I ordered them. I have not
checked for awhile so status may have changed. I sometimes install a
grease fitting in the hub but it's not for everyone. You NEED to have the
brake drum off when pumping in grease so to see if the seal pops off and gets
grease in the brake area. See my > _Vanagon Westy Suspension, Steering,
Brake Overhaul_ (http://frankcondelli.com/springs.htm) webpage. Torque on
that axel nut is 360 ft. lbs, just in case you did not know that. Must be
tightened with all wheels on the ground.
