- A probably better fix is to use a punch to create 3 equidistant dimples in each hub race. You can also get an adhesive made for this purpose. I think Loctite makes it. Seems I saw it in the Kragen's

- You can the one back that I got from you if needed. I haven't done the disc brake swap yet. RE: adding material. We had a machinist here years ago who spun a front bearing on his Dodge Power Wagon.

- One of the rare times I will disagree with Gerard (but only sorta). Don't try to take up the slack with dimples. The bearing races are *hard* and they just aren't intended to be whacked hard enough t

- unfortunatly dimpling the hub is not a very good idea as it is a load bearing item and the disturbing of a machined surface can be an introduction of a surface irregularity that can become a crack. a

- I'm certainly no expert in this area. In fact, I have so little experience in this area, that I can't even imagine one that has so much play that it could be glued in off center! I don't think I'd ev
