PostSubject: wheel bearing question   Fri 22 Jan 2010, 4:09 pm
I was installing a new speedometer cable today.
Figured I would clean and re-pack the bearings while I was there. I
pulled the hub off and the bearings need to be replaced. My question is
this: I don't know what year this front end came off of. Are all link
pin front ends the same? ...And I have ball outer bearings and roller
inner bearings. Are the new bearings that I am finding (roller inner
and outer) interchangeable?

Thanks, -C-Man-

They change some. If you can figure out what wheel cyl. you have that will narrow it down some.
