need to know wheel bearings
Post by mikec3820 on Apr 10, 2006, 5:12pm
Do any of you fine folk know what size the nuts holding the wheel hub on the spindle (front passenger) are so I can get a socket to fit them. Also, My bearings are fried and I am not sure of a part #. Anybody know if the local parts house would have them.

I thought I had the bearing and race numbers in my notes but I guess not. They are common parts, just take in the number off the bearing and the number from the race.
Front wheel grease seals are Nat'l #475384, about $20 each.
I wanna say the nut is 2-9/16". Best to measure yours if nobody chimes in.

Thank you. I'll try to get a part number off the bearings, but one of them completely desentigrated going down the road.
