IIRC, The analysis confirmed that using the spacer increased the effective
diameter of the stub axle creating a lower bend moment and thus increasing
the longevity of the stub axle itself, as long as the spacer was in direct
contact with the inner race of both bearings, that is.

It only goes one way- Pay It Forward
Hi list,
Does anyone remember the debate about whether or not to use the spacer in
the front hub when converting to tapered roller bearings?
Well, I'm currently (binge) watching the restoration of an American Grant
WW2 tank by the Australian tank museum. Here is the link to the episode
I'm currently watching:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEfhJXcreUY&list=PLWYZuCQ-NHUOIkUYupsLsLzK5AZZETh37&index=6
At 10:02 of the clip just after the Timken tapered roller bearing is
removed so is the the bearing spacer.
I always thought it was better to use the bearing spacer even when
converted to tapered roller bearings for several reasons but if anyone
needs an extra reason, this is how Timken did it, back in the day.
Regards
Daniel
