After reviewing the link you (Grigg) sent me to on all the research and work you have done on axles and brakes can you confirm that my bearing situation might be resolved by changing the spindles to a newer model with the same king pins and maybe then be able to use less costly wheel bearings? If so, any suggestions on what might make sense? One benefit
I can imagine is that if a later model would work AND had less costly bearings to boot the
lucky next owner will be happy. Just a thought. If you read my post entirely one of my spindles is a good candidate for the scrap yard so replacing them both for this additional
benefit might make good sense. Thoughts? Also, FYI to those looking to simply buy bearings for your 46 or other things/years: If you live in California I have found great
prices and helpful folks at Bert Williams Auto Parts in Napa, CA. Old school service!!
