    Front Wheel Bearing End Play

    tighten them just snug with a 12inch Crescent..then back off the nut without touching the wheel or hub,,,then finger tighten the nut and insert the cotter. Too tight is almost worse than too loose. I was in the brg business for 50 yrs

    What to look for in a shop that rebuilds engines, automatic transmissions and rear ends now days?

    I have been in the bearing industry for 50 years. the green bearings are ok but they are a ball bearing. the original bearings are a tapered roller Timken and are much stronger than the Green style. I would not use Green in my rig which is 67Dodge 440 with a warmed 440. The timken brgs are...

    STOCK means STOCK

    Put a set of Super Comp Hookers on a 67 Coronet and the fit was great up top but bad down below. The engine compartment really warms up and they are more trouble than they are worth. The engine is 30 over 69 440. The car has always been quick even with 323 rear and posi. Don’t worry about carb...

    Does this look like valve float?

    Rear axle bearing re-packing

    If the bearings are removed, you destroy the retaining ring. It is a tight press fit. Be very careful of the seal in the axle tube. It prevents contamination from hypoid gear lube. The 8.25 rear axle was a straight roller brg that was lubed by gearlube from the center section. The 8.75 had one...
