Dana 60 axle bearing part II
Ok I pulled the axles. I have the bearing with an oring that has the retainer pressed onto it. There is an inner bearing also. The retainer mounts to the axle tube to hold it in. So I in turn ordered a rear disc brake set from wilwood. They said they sell two types for dana 60 one with the snap ring bearing and the type I got. They explained you have to press the retainer off the bearing because the new caliper mounting bracket is made to hold the axle in. Well I got the kit today and two problems. One the bracket will not fit over my bearing. My bearing is way to big. Second the hat will not fit over my axle studs. So do I need to buy a different bearing? I was told there was only one bearing w/o snap ring. Any info is appreciated. Sorry so long. Ed
