Might also want to make sure the preload is correct and not too tight.

Hey Al, are your spindles still available ? Frank inspected his and found that they were damaged by a spinning bearing as well.

Yes I will investigate later on quality....there are 3 pairs here in stock so hopefully 1 pair is ok.

Hey Al, any news on the spindle ? No hurry, just curious. I got the ball joints pressed out today. The upper passenger bj was SHOT. It had been rubbing on the inside of the joint and was almost cut in half !

 

[homelessduck]

Off topic... but can anyone tell me what degree bushing this is ? This came off the passenger side, driver side is completely different.

2.75 degrees? That's what they usually stamp on them, the degrees. Yours has 2-3/4 and what looks like a symbol for degrees right behind the "4" digit...

 

[homelessduck]

That... makes total sense. Haha. How did I miss that...

 

[homelessduck]

Hey Al, I'm about finished,just need some spindles.. any update on their condition? @riotwarrior

 

[riotwarrior]

Looking at what I have 4 of 6..not great sadly. They show signs of wear and thogh seemed ok not sure they would be much better if sny than what u have.

The final pair are on a wrecked farm truck which is complete...i suspect baseg on all the crap I see on it they would be similr.

Anyone else abble help him out??

I got nothing brother, looked around cause I though there was a pair laying in the leftover parts pile, but came up empty, must have scrapped them when prices were good. No guarantee they were even D50 parts to begin with, could have very well been 44HD stuff...

No problem guys, thanks for looking ! I'll just glue them in and see what happens ! Hopefully everything works beautifully and I don't have to attempt to remove the bearings any time soon !

If you do, you wont.

I am 95% sure that I have a perfect pair of spindles for a D50. When I swapped to the D60 I saved all of the hubs and guts. I am in Canada though... I do travel to NY once in a while to pick up crap from the States but the dollar has been limiting my shopping. Let me know if you want them.

If you need them you can have them for shipping. Or do a road trip and I can burn you a steak.
