    Hello all,

    I think i hit another snag in my front end build. Finally into assembly of the spindle, completely new 11' brakes....then i went to install the new bearings and races (cups) into the hub and the races just fell in without any pressing or fuss. My guess is that means the wheel would never roll right as it would always have that little bit of play....

    Please confirm for me what i want to deny that new hubs are in order?.... :banghead:

    If so is Kaiser the best place to get them? Is $68 a decent going price?

    Front & Rear Axle Wheel Hub Fits 41-64 Jeep & Willys with Dana 25 front & Dana 27 rear

    I need to review my notes, but I believe there are two size races and bearings (OD) based on if the came a Dana 25 or 27. The (ID) spindle size is the same between the two hubs.

    I ran into the same issue with a set that I forced a larger OD race into and ruined.
