Re: Rear Wheel Bearing Problem

boy it's been a long time since i r&r'd a stock rearend, most older gm rearends are like 48 said
the only thing holding the axle in is the wedding band (aka retainer ring) and it has to be pressed on
you should have a 4 bolt flange w/seal, bearing and wedding band on the axle. in that order
even my 86 trans am rearend has wedding bands. the only rearends i've torn down with c-clips have ford stamped on them

i'd be curious to hear the step of tear down too
