The proper repair is to replace the wheel bearings, even if they don't look bad.

I am already using new bearings (including replacing the races), so it appears that I will need to take some material off the spacer if I want to reduce the endplay.

All the parts are either new or have been sitting in parts cleaner for long enough that there are no shims hiding anywhere. I did the other side with no; /html/mgs/2003-07/msg00300.html (9,641 bytes)

But then, neither can I say how long the spacer should be, which I suspect is what; /html/mgs/2003-07/msg00329.html (9,922 bytes)

Why not add shims until it locks up, then remove enough shims to establish the proper end play? Sounds like it s; /html/mgs/2003-07/msg00355.html (9,218 bytes)

Isn't this backward? The spacer and shims determine the distance between the two bearings. When you reduce this distance (by removing shims) the bearings get closer tog; /html/mgs/2003-07/msg00357.html (10,459 bytes)

Which is why taking shims out (i.e. shortening the total length of the spacer plus shims) reduces end-float and increasing the shims increases it. /// or try http://www.team.net/cgi-b; /html/mgs/2003-07/msg00374.html (9,120 bytes)
