Where can I get a bearing race for a 60 Belair??

The P/S outer bearing race on my Belair is pretty ptted and I need to replace it. I looked in all the usual catalogs with no luck. Does anyone no if these are still made? Or do I need to scrounge a used one? They used caged ball bearings up until 60. Thanks, Todd

 

Try King Bearing on the web. Give them the # off the old one. Iv'e had good luck with them.

 

If you have a mill service in your area they will normally be able to match one up for you. Or a tractor dealer.

 

Napa Number B67 front outer 1960 Belair

 

missed the p/s part sorry

 

Aren't those the sticker shock ones?
I believe up to 1962 Corvette used the ball style.
Not cheap at auto stores!

 

Industrial bearing houses can usually match it up, cheap , too.

 

Late Great chevs has the bearing you need, also they sell tapered roller bearing conversion kits.

 

if you have a number on it, try american bearing co.

I did find one through my local Ma&Pa auto parts store. It's $51 for just one outer bearing! YIKES! I did some looking around and Ecklers has a complete upgrade frome ball to roller bearings, including new hubs for less than $200.00 I think this may be a good way to go.

 

Bought that for my '58 from Eckler's Late Great. Took a couple months to get it, but I got it. Will advise here when it is installed.

 

if the race is bad the whole bearing is bad. you cant piece meal bearings.

 

Buy some hubs from a 63-70 Chevy. They will be tapered bearings.

 

I simply put 61 chevy roller bearings in my 60 impala with no problems. Direct fit.

 

We were changing to to roller bearings in the 60,s. Never were worth a shit.
