    ffr spindles and hub bearing problems

    Hello everyone, so my kit finally arrived this passed weekend. I'm having a problem with the ffr spindle shaft not going into the ffr hub and bearing it came with.




    Edit - I got it to work after a nice little rub with a scotch brite pad.

    That's the right hub bearing part number for the FFR 2-piece spindles. Sometimes they're a little bit of a tight fit. Polish around the surface of the spindle with some emory cloth and I'll be they'll slide on. Make sure there aren't any imperfections, bumps, ridges, whatever on the spindles or the bearings. It's a close tolerance fit and must be clean and aligned just right.
