Hi Guys,



My 51 Hornet Coupe needs new u-joints and a center drive shaft carrier bearing. Anyone know where to get these locally? Is there a NAPA part number I can have my mechanic reference? Thanks! Niels

    Here are the part numbers for the bearings.



    '48-'52 All Exc Pacemaker and Wasp use #88506



    '50-'52 Pacemaker and Wasp use #88107



    '53-'54 All Exc Jet use #88107



    I am not totally sure about the above infomation. So here are the dimensions of the bearings. You can measure yours and pick the right one.



    #88506

    ID 1.1811 inchs

    OD 2.4409

    Width 0.9449 inchs



    #88107

    ID 1.3780 inchs

    OD 2.8346

    Width 0.9843 inchs



    For the u-joints try NAPA 2100153 or Precision 369.

  • I just used a few precision 369, U-joints, should be available from NAPA for about $12 each. they work well. Send your driveshafts to hudsondad, and he'll press them in for you..... (oh wait... I guess that was just mine....) Oh well, you get the idea! best! Hudsonkid

    These are standard metric size bearings, any bearing shop should have them.



    The #88506 is 30 x 62 x 24mm



    The #88107 is 35 x 72 x 25mm
