Burned up a rear wheel bearing on the choptop...again. I suspect this axle is fubar'd. The last time the axle shaft and wheel came out and rolled down the road, didn't get that bad this time but its still trashed.
I need to stay 6 lug and 3.54-3.55 geared to match the front which I just rebuilt with new bearings/brakes/calipers etc. so changing the front out at this point is not feasable. I know a 14 bolt and dana 60 is the bomb diggity but its also not in the budget. I was running wt axles on the wag. welding new perches on is not a problem.
Yes I was running 36 tsl swampers with a lincoln locked wt dana 44, it held up for 10+ years prior to the wheel bearing issue.
Ford 8.8? Chevy??? dodge??? Suggestions? Cheaper the better.
