I recently had bearing failure on the drivers side front spindle. The outer bearing is crispy and dry. The inner bearing is fine. I assume it had grease seeping out of the speedometer cable hole and it just ran dry over time. The passengers side looks clean and fully greased.
The problem is that the bearing race seems to have welded itself onto the spindle. Upon removal it left slag on the spindle that does not want to come off. Also, the threads on the spindle look a little abused. Does anyone have a new spindle that I can purchase near central Vermont? Also, what is the size die I need to chase the threads on the spindle?
