Dear Listers:  I bought a pair of Spridget hubs from a parts car and had a 
machine shop press new bearings into them.  Something doesn't seem right when 
I put them on the car.  It doesn't seem to push on far enough onto the 
spindle and the split pin holes are not visible.  I suspect that I either 
have the wrong bearings or they were installed with extra seats.  Also, 
should I be using the old "distance piece" from the old hub that slips over 
the spindle and floats between the two bearings?  I am baffled and I my shop 
manual is not much help since it refers only to the original drum brake hubs. 
  Thanks for your help.  ---Bill Langdell    '57 Morris Convertilbe
