.....I've used the "green" bearings since they've come out.......I haven't had to change out a set Yet!.....in decades!.....and I punish my cars, when I drive them on the street, or track(straight or twisty).......can't tell you how may tapered Timkens I destroyed over the years!

I have been told you can't run them on the street for years and that is total crap Has anyone ever tore apart a 7 1/4 rear end and looked at the bearings,they are small green type bearings with millions of rears on the road in a,b and e body cars that have that rearend in six cylinder cars.I have run them for years in my cars and had zero problems,besides the bearing for a 8 3/4 is much bigger than the 7 1/4.No doubt the tappered bearing is stronger but the green bearings are stronger than most people think



Hmmmmmm This brings me back to my other question. I've done some pricing and I can get stock Fedral Moguls(?) pressed on for $85 plus tax and seals. Can I do Greens that cheap?
