Hi Phil,
=20
thank you for your input.
Indeed only the left axle shows this problem. Never did the right axle.
=20
I will try to make it to the Mosport Kastner Cup next year.
=20
Cheers
Chris

Subject: Re: [Fot] Southwick Conversion - keeping the bearing in place?
=20
Hi Chris;
=20
I have always pressed the securing ring on the shaft. To remove I use =
heat.
=20
This has worked well for me on other Fords and Dana axles.
=20
It sounds to me as if the shaft is too small in diameter if the inner =
race of the bearing spins on the shaft. I'm not sure if some red loctite =
on the shaft would work well enough to secure it or not. Dealing with a =
safety issue here. Perhaps a new axle shaft?
=20
Missed you at the Kastner Cup this year.

Hi Guys,
I have a question.
My TR8 is running on Mustang axles. They are quite similar to the =
Southwick system.
I have heard that the securing ring on the axle which keeps the bearing =
in place can be pressed or I have "heard" they need to be shrinked on.
Making the ring red hot and slide it on the axle shaft in place.
What is right? Pressing on - which would be easy, or shrinking, what I =
didn't do before.
The reason I'm asking, the bearings don't stay in place and the shaft =
moves in the bearing. The securing ring is not strong enough.
Cheers
Chris
