Default Re: New Front Wheel Bearings

The bearing should be a fairly snug slip fit. If you feel that you sanded too much off then just take a prick punch to the spindle. Two punches in-line at 90º intervals [ 8 punches]. It won't take much to punch them just a little to snug up the bearings. That centers the bearing while just using loctite doesn't.

I know some don't like that idea, but, its an old Ford factory rep tip that was taught to me back in the 50s. It works well.
