hey I'm getting ready to take my 92 in for a bearing repack and a bj job.....

Sux, repack is on left bj's on right... imagine that... anyways,

I'm going to do both bj's, upper and lower,

I just did bearings last Sunday...

The bearing kits are Timkin set # 37 (you need two sets per side of the vehicle) and the wheel bearing seals were Timkin 4250's.

ok for a simple repack, do I only need the one seal per side?

if so great I'm in business and my order is going in, in seconds... I need my truck back on it's feet, more weather is coming and my snowmobile (rwd sports car), might as well be a snowplow, ... (althought it does pack the intercooler with ice) LOL


Won't like going in 6 inches... 2-3 fine... but 6 it just won't handle...\\


I should have checked this before ... But you usually put tires on THEN align... HEH... I should have done the reverse... LMAO... thankfully the alignment check was free....And to go with this, I had NOOOO Idea, the thing drives so beautifulllll... It's hard to imagine that lower BJ... is so sloppy loose it literally almost made me puke... and the wheel beraings on the other side have enough slack in them I'm checking them before the rpack to make sure we don't need a replacement.

Just a bit of info,

rockauto.com

Spicer red lines, 23 for the pair...

and the seals were 2.14 each I think I'm gonna have them repack both sides.

Since they probably both need done...

If your just going to repack your existing bearings then you only need wheel seals (one for each side)..

If your going to replace bearings then you need 4 sets (I always have 2 spare sets and a seal in the truck).
