Fabien,

I'm guessing your friend has the Wilwood kit with parking brake shoes in the rotor hat.

Did you install the snap ring directly against the housing end? Unfortunately, Wilwood's instructions don't mention you must use the 5 hole retainer that comes with the bearings as a shim to properly space the axles away from the differential internals. Otherwise, constant preloading will destroy the wheel bearings.

Ooops! you're right, we never used this retainer (thanks Wilwood). We'll try and see what happens.

Thanks Cass!

Edit :
when we installed the kit, the axles did not touch each other. Where would the preloading come from? is the housing not deep enough for the bearing?
