Hey all,

Looks like it is time to RnR the axles , bearings and seals in the (stock)rear end on sons 89 formula he did have a good vibration at 60mph and above we got that fixed with a new 3inch diver shaft made by a custom shop near us.

I searched threads and dont see a part number for the moser axle and wheel studs in your rebuilds. I did see this for bearing and seals from James C which is a good write up

I purchased my Timkens from AutoZone. Double-check the following:

Wheel Bearing Rear, part #5707
Wheel Seal Rear, part #8660S
James C

Thanks

Tim

 

Is it a 9 or 10 bolt rearend?

 

'89 Formula could have the 9 bolt Borg Warner rear end, which uses completely different parts.

 

Good question all we should've looked before posting we thought was a 10 bolt but its not it is a 9 bolt. Yeah we can look and net for #s but thought be easier see what you all use to make sure get right parts. This site has help us in the past with other mods to his car

Thanks

 

Ok been searching around for the 9 bolt parts and found this on ebay. Anyone use them? If so pros and cons?

Thanks

 

I've use a lot of the USA Standard kits, and they are fine. That kit that you are looking at is for the 7.5-7.6 10 bolt, not the 9 bolt.

 

Thanks. I been looking at autozone and Napa for part #s I found on this site and not coming up I'll continue looking.

 

Randy's has parts for the 9 bolt.

 

moser doesnt make axles for 9 bolts.

 

I thought that Moser would make axles for anything. Anyway, there is almost never a need to replace the axles in a 9 bolt because the bearings are pressed on and don't cause wear on the axle it's self. A bent axle would be the only reason that I know of to replace one.

 

Moser actually does make axles for the 9 bolt. A guy brought a set to me yesterday to get the bearings presses on them.
