Subject: [Tigers] axle bearing part numbers
For anyone needing or planning to change your axle bearings. I have the
following numbers. the seals I bought on epay and there ws no numbers
stamped ot printed on them. Also if you have never repacked your axle
bearings. I would highly reccomend doing so. the hub can be a Bi--- to
remove but with the proper tool it isnt so bad. I had to go to a friends
machine shop to remove the bearing from the axl, using his press. he was
busy so I helped myself. friends are great. I had the rear wheels off and
the car on jack stands and when i turned te hub I could hear dry bearings.
There is no grease or oil for the bearing to run in and mine where very dry.
I suggest listening to your own as this is one place easily neglected.
The bearing on my axle( doing one siad at a time) had Bower- USA bearing--
# 14130
The replacement was a National or Federal Mogul made in Japan and used the
same number.
The race was from Parts Master #PM 14276 made in China.
Im not sure where Ricks bearings are made but no compny in the US makes
bearings now- according to my local parts man. SO,if you shop around in some
smaller towns with older business's, you might get lucky and find a USA
bearing laying on the shelf.Good luck, TonytheTiger
The Bower race(USA) used the same 14276 part number.
