The addition of this part alone will reduce oversteer and improve tire life. With the addition of the bracket and rebuilt control rods you will find that not only does the car corner better but tracks straighter on the open highway. There is no change in ride feel. I cannot think of any other modification that makes this much difference for this little money. 1965-69 C5118 5 lbs. REAR AXLE (WHEEL) BEARINGS 1960-64 CARS & 1961-65 VANS The rear axle bearings are probably the most dangerous part of the whole car. It is not uncommon for the axle shaft to pull right out. In some cases the axle shaft just worked out and in others the bearing has failed. The 1965-69 style fixed this but people with the earlier style should not ignore any possible bearing noises! ANY NEW OLD STOCK BEARINGS SHOULD BE REPACKED WITH GREASE AS THE OLD GREASE IS USUALLY HARD. NOTE: The 1960-62 (stamped steel housing) will fit 63-64 (although it is not as snug in the lower a-frame opening). The 1963-64 (cast iron housing) will not fit 1960-62 opening without considerable grinding. CLARK REPRO AXLE BEARINGS: See page 166 GM BEARINGS: Original "swivel" bearings as supplied on the car, becoming very rare. AFTERMARKET BEARINGS: We seldom have these. GREASING NOTE: Do not over-grease original or repro bearings. GM DID NOT pack them full like the front wheel bearings. If you use too much, grease will be forced past seals and can get on brake shoes. Grease all rollers & races plus a little extra in the middle, but DO NOT pack! AXLE BEARINGS: Complete units – all come with new puller ring I.D. YEAR CLARK REPRO GM Seldom have AFTERMARKET BEARINGS Seldom have 1.178 1960-62 Cars See Pg. 166 C713 4 lbs.
