A guy at my hotel needs wheel bearing for a 1961 Chevy pickup. He is trying to get back to Dallas. Does anybody out there have any in this area used would work I think he is still running the drums and for sure the are the old style roller bearings. Trying to leave Sunday morning. If u do message me and I will pass on the word thanks
He probably already knows the bearing numbers but the inner is a BCA B66 Or Napa brg B66. The outer bearing number is B67. I couldn't get the Napa store link for Austin to open on my laptop. This should be a link that gives store locations and hours though http://www.napaonline.com/FindLocation/find-a-location.aspx
The one on Congress has one at thier warehouse. If you go pay for it, you might still have to wait till Monday. $114.00 each. They have ONE. (512) 445-2166 http://www.napaonline.com/Catalog/R...tk=Keyword&Nty=1&Dn=0&D=brg+b66&Dk=1&Dp=3&N=0 O'Reilly's has it, but it's also at thier warehouse.
In case he can't find the part, here's what you tell him to do. Put everything he can find, as far back into the opposite corner of the bed, as he can. Any extra weight he can get in that opposite rear corner will be to his advantage. Seriously, rocks, down tree limbs, maybe a fat neighbor, I dunno, it doesn't matter. Lots of weight on that opposite rear corner. Next, since the offending wheel is now in the air, remove it. Thats right, remove the wheel and tire. This should effectively create a 3 wheeler. Drive very slowly and for gods sake, no hard braking. You don't want that fat neighbor coming through the back window. Best of luck and godspeed brother.
