abentz Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Recently bought an 82 brat. Engine runs well, but need to replace a stripped hub to be able to drive it. I am replacing the bearings and ball joint while I am at it. I noticed there was only an outer seal and no spacer between the two bearings (just the built in spacing of the knuckle). Is this normal? Or should I buy both an inner and outer seal? Also would buys some hubs if anyone has any that reads this. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveT Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 There probably should be a spacer. Older and newer cars had them. There should be an inner and outer seal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Inner and outer seals (get them from Subaru), and yes there MUST be a spacer between the two bearings. GD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
