Default Front wheel bearings & seals (part#)

Hi everyone

I'm currently rebuilding/restoring the complete front suspension of my 77 Vette.
I have most of the parts and tools that are needed.

I just don't know what type parts (model#) I need, to replace the front wheel races, bearings and seals with.
I read Timken is the way to go.

Do you guys know all the part numbers for this job?

I'm from Belgium (Europe).

I just di mine on my '68...most of the rebuilders use Timken bearing sets. You need front inner and outer bearing sets plus an outer seal (Timken 7934S).

Is a 68 the same as a 77, regarding bearings and seals?
