Green bearings convert the factory conical roller bearings to actual roller bearings. This is fine for drag cars which put a lot of horses to the pavement. Drag cars generally go in straight lines...not so good for road cars. But since you probably aren't daily driving this car it shouldn't be a problem. You'll have to have them pressed onto the axles. I've had several sets done on 8 3/4 rears in the past. They are only for 8 3/4 rears so far as I know. Never had a failure. Last set I got from mancini racing. http://www.manciniracing.com/ma834daraap.html Enjoy! -------- Original message -------- From: John Williams <jwilliams@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: 4/5/18 22:20 (GMT-05:00) To: L-FORWARDLOOK@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [FWDLK] Rear Disc Brake Conversion for 1957 Dodge Custom Royal -- What's a 'green' axle bearing? I converted my front brakes to disc several years ago, and now want to convert the rear brakes as well. I found a kit for the rear brakes here: http://www.ecihotrodbrakes.com/rear_discbrake_conversions.html There’s a note which states “Chrysler product rear axles require one piece "GREEN" axle bearings.” Can anyone tell me what ‘green’ axle bearing are, and where I can obtain them? Thanks so much for your help! John Williams 1957 Dodge Custom Royal ************************************************************* To unsubscribe or set your subscription options,
