I want to replace my front wheel bearings. Are there modern bearings that will fit? I have a 1930 sedan.

    I visited a local bearing outlet yesterday and was pleasantly surprised to find that they still stocked the correct front wheel bearings for my 1930 Essex. The originals were Timken 14132 - 14274 for the inner, and 09074 - 09194 for the outer. The only ones that I didn't get were the inner cones. Their computer listed a 14132T, which I understand is a tapered bearing and not correct, but not a 14132. Besides, these were $60 each and would have to be ordered in and the old ones actually look pretty good.
