If you can find them. $80 plus for just one inner bearing and over $50 for the outer. And that is each! Add the seal and new dust caps and you are headed towards $200. So I see that others have used "timken" type tapered roller bearings. $119 plus shipping. http://www.speedwaymotors.com/1947-59-Chevy-Pick-Up-Tapered-Roller-Bearing-Conversion,24928.html
So do these work? Any issues with the install? I would rather hear the rants before I spend the money. Lets talk about it. Thanks in advance.
