I pressed the rear axle bearings off of the axles for my '57, man were they tight! The new bearings have a retainer ring that is significantly thinner and smaller than the originals. It does not seem to have any function with regard to locating the axle in the housing but the difference in thickness is very noticeable, is this any cause for concern or just the way the replacement bearings are made?
