After a quick front end "spring check-up/service", it turns out that my beloved 1970 Barracuda with disc brakes, needs at least one new outher bearing!

I thought of doing the whole front bearing wise, in one go.. (inner / outer, and seals).. BUT, it would be a tremendous advantage, to "order first, and swap upon arrival".. and would be very grateful if anyone would know, and share information on which ones to buy. I plan to order from rock, but they seem to carry at least three different sizes 🫣


I Googled and read what I could find, but theres nothing anywhere, that clearly points at any specific size.. and unfortunately, the "Rock Auto onine catalog", says nothing about disc brakes, like they do with so many other wheel related parts... I suspect that they are the same, as for the 10, and 11" drums.. but on the other hand, I have accumulated many parts over the years, "bought on suspicions", so I hope someone can help..

Thnx in advance !! 😎

If you look up them on AutoZone website, scroll down in the description and the exact size specs are listed. Timkin uses item numbers such as SET2 and similar.

The Timken part #'s are LM11910 cup and LM11949 for the Race any good bearing supply house like Motion or BDI will have them cheaper than most auto parts stores. Those are for 11 inch Disc's off of my 72 Challenger built in Sept. of 71.
