Re: Help!!
If you don't know about them there are vendors that advertise on this forum as well as lmc truck, classic parts (name sounds generic but they sell truck parts). .... If you have the bearings in hand you should be able to go to a generic bearing supply house. We have one in my city and they can order practically any bearing from any application. Hope this helps.

Re: Help!!
Any parts store can supply them. The original are conical but the replacements are straight roller brgs. If you replace on of the conical in a hub you are supposed to replace both.

Re: Help!!
Thanks guys, I am fairly new to the early 50's era stuff. 55 up...no problem. Learning a lot working on a 53 3600 with an older fellow who is a retired machinist.
