I am putting new brakes on my 61 C20. Also clean and pack front wheel bearings. Is the inner bearing race for the inner ball bearing supposed to be free to spin on the spindle a little, or should that be a snug fit. Perhaps it tightens up when you tighten the nut on the end? I can tighten it up with a few peen marks and or some locktite sleeve retainer.

It fits freely on the spindle. Once installed right it won't spin in use.

They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.
