    from 11 to 6

    I'm finishing a 69 that last ran with 11" fuchs on the rear with racing rubber. I've gone back to 6" fuchs and have noticed play similar to a lose wheel bearing when torqued. Brngs are new. Is there anyone with the same experience that can help me go straight the problem? Thanks in advance.

    I've encountered two oddball circumstances related to that symptom. One was new axle bearings made in Pakistan (FAG box) the other was the I.D. of the bearing housing in the trailing arm had worn oversize. A oversize O.D. bearing is available.

    Thanks Ed. Carriers are out-of-round. Too much wheel and tire in it's earlier life.
