Re: Green bearings pro and con



Hi fellas and gal,
I'm surprised no one has mentioned Mopar Actions' recommendations on axle bearings. The OEM tapered bearings are far superior in side load capacity.

 I think I have a rear
 axle bearing going out, So I have been doing some research
 on the non adjustable Green bearings. Green is actually the
 name of the company that makes them. They have been bought
 out by another company, but still retains the Green name
 .
 My best source of Info is from
 Dr. Differential tech article. ( who could be better??) The
 early bearings are RP 400 and have a crimped on 5 hole
 retainer which will not allow for any "wiggle" in
 the bearing . Most axle housings , even new ones are not
 perfectly straight. and between tha,t and those bearings are
 inserted in the housing deeper, results in pre-loading
 against the thrust block, and can lead to early bearing
 failure. So-- that must be the reason for the pros and the
 cons. Those bearings are still being sold by some sources
 including Mopar Performance parts ( alledgedly)
 Now, there is a newer style "Green" bearing, # MO
 400 that is installed with a snap ring and supposedly has
 taken care of the problems the older bearings (has)- had. 
 In the past, I have been against the use of Green bearings,
 but with ease of installation, I just might give them a try.
