Mating bearings and drums

Post by PareosWC »

When disassembling my drums on a 43 WC52, I 'may' have mismatched the bearings from one hub to a different one. Knowing that this is something you generally don't want to happen, does it matter if they are packed well and driven only sporadically?

if they are in good shape I don't think you would have an issue. check hubs for excessive heat on first couple trips. Bearings on vehicles with 36" tall tires dont spin very fast anyway. ;/)
