Charlie,

I really don¡¯t see you having any issue with the bearings you installed. Six years shows that to be true!

I don¡¯t see how 350F would alter a bearing metallurgy of a bearing.

I¡¯m just pointing out what the bearing nerds recommend, and that radical high temps are not necessary. Correct bearing fits, aside from plain bearings, are measured in tenths, (.0001¡±), so it doesn¡¯t take much. ?

Hello, Bill,

?

I am certainly no bearing expert, so I defer to your expertise and experience.

?

My goal was only to relate what I had done and what worked well for me.? As tapered roller bearings do not have shields, seals or internal lubrication, (at least, the ones I installed didn't), any overheating issues would manifest in a metallurgical issue.? Fortunately, this has not happened in the six or so years since their installation.

Thanks,

Charlie
