Thanks guys.

Steve, that's the problem. Once you get off of a project it is hard to get going again.

Richard, I see on the news where some of you guys are really getting hit hard with cold and snow. I remember those days all too well. Right now we are enjoying some pleasant days, but in a few months it will be back to sweating into our work.

Bob, sorry we missed you at Daytona. As soon as we park we head straight for the swap meet area. Might miss out on some deal, ya know.

Mike, yep, he has the Wilson Welding hubs inside his Buick drums. What did you have to shim and where?

Pastor, I think this finally does finish it off. Only thing I want to add now is gas.

The rear of the hubs where the seal presses in was undersize by .010. I had to chuck them up and bore them out to get the seal to fit. I compared them to a set of original hubs I had.

Of course I didn't find out until I was doing the final assembly with greased wheel bearings.

Don't know if this is a problem with all the hubs, but mine were both the same size.

If you haven't assembled them already, you might want to check it out. I guess if you've already put yours together, they were OK.(Pretty obvious)
