Greetings All.
'64 drum brakes)
My front bearings are starting to moan. Is it best to go tapered type or stick with roller type?

Is there a prefered brand (or a part number for a kit)

Alex.

I went the tapered option when I past did drums. Timken is the way to go.

Thanks POEEE

I'll get it done over the weekend. I was starting to worry something might crunch and leave me stranded.

Cheers
Alex.
