1980 Eagle Hub Assembly
« on: January 17, 2012, 11:54:24 AM »
Anyone have a lead on where I can find one of these? Need one for the passenger side (this is the type w/ the ball bearings).

In the meantime I am going to try to remove the one I have and take it to a machine shop to see if there is anything they can do.

Thanks.

I would find a later one with tapered bearings.

Trying to remember back, I think Jim knows for sure.  You can use tapered bearings in ball bearing hubs.
