I bought a rear disc conversion kit and it says it requires green bearings. Does anyone know why and what are is the difference between green and regular bearings?
I may not be talking in the same context, but I used to race circle track cars in the 70's. Green Bearings were supposed to be the hot setup. We tried them and found them to be huge failure on the track. We would burn out a set during a night of racing. Went back to Timken bearings and never had a problem. Of course we were racing and I believe we're talking street use here, but from my experience, I would not use the green bearings.
Correcto mundo Robert. Just the rears though, your pic has f&r shown.
I believe Dr. Diff sells a rear disc brake conversion that uses the 2004 vintage Mustang calipers and rotors. The kit has the adapter to mount to the mopar axle and retains the original axle bearings.
