Re: which bearing
I would get the correct bearing for a 40 ford hub.

Re: which bearing
V8 bearing up to 1948 is is the one to use. Model A bearing will not fit the 40 Ford Hub.

Re: which bearing
You will need Ford part # 68-1225 or equivalent bearing, used in rear hubs from late 1936 through 1948.

Re: which bearing
Avoid reproduction bearings as their quality is very questionable. Even used Genuine Ford
1940 Ford bearings would be better. |
