Hi all, Thank you for being so helpful! So, what I figured. ( English is not my first language or even second language, so sorry in advance) - The passenger's side dust seal was slightly damaged; I did not see it the first time. It was preventing the hub from sitting correctly. - Go with...

I think the dust cover robber part sticks out too much and gets sandwiched between the hub and the dust cover body. I also think, It does not have to be a lot of contact to affect hub spinning. I also noticed damage to the dust cover flange on the driver's side, it was not there when I...

So I think I might have found the problem. I looked closer at my dust covers, and I don't think they are the correct ones.

That was my first thought, but no, they are correctly installed.

Thank you for pointing that out; I must have put the wrong bolt ( or the previous owner(s) did ). I am putting on new coil springs, new front brake calipers, pads, discs, brake hoses and some brake lines. I agree that the bolt could prevent the hub from fully sitting there.

Thanks for your response. I got Timken. My passenger's side hub got on the spindle relatively easily, and the c-clip got on just fine. On the other hand, the driver's side was much harder. I greased the spindle up a little bit, but it still gave me a hard time and I could not put the c-clip...

The amount of grease in the hub between the inner and outer bearings is fine. I do not like how the inner seals from the kit look,; I ordered OME inner seals, and once I put them on, I will see if that changes much. thanks !

Thank you all for helping me! RaleighCJ—even before I torqued it, I hand-tightened the adjusting nut first to keep the hub on, and it's already bearly spinning. Malleus - I thought it was too much grease at first, but I put less than a pound per knuckle housing. jonheld - I can rotate the...

Hi, I could not find an answer searching this forum, if I missed it, sorry. I am rebuilding the steering knuckles on my 1994 80s LC ( I got the kit from Cruiser Outfitters). The issue I'm running into is that I cannot set wheel bearing preload on brake disc hubs. I watched tons of videos and...
