Do new rear wheel bearings have a failure with the end plates(thrust plates).
While looking for new bearings for my Model A sleeved hubs(uses '36-'48 Ford bearing ?) it seems as though it's a failure problem with the thrust plates (not hardened) and not the rollers.

If you've replaced yours with no failure problems who was the supplier ?
Don't want to go 500 miles like some have and bearings fail.
