It has been a while, but I'm back with another update. Working on more family cars has kept me busy. They take priority over Papa Smurf, unfortunately. Also, I bought a new-to-me GMC 1500. That one is 46 years too new to talk about on this forum, lol. Anyways, I also have an update on Papa Smurf.

I completely rebuilt both rear hubs and gutted the old drum brakes. I installed new wheel bearings and races, new seals, and new studs and lug nuts. Next logical step would be to install the new brake hardware. Just need another day of decent weather so I can do that.

Here are some part numbers if anyone needs them. I have a Dana 60 rear diff. that came out of a Jeep J20. Keep in mind that there were a few variants of the Dana 60 that these parts may not fit.

Wheel Bearing (Inner): Timken 28678
Bearing Race (Inner): Timken 28622
Bearing Race (Outer): Timken 18620
Wheel Bearing (Outer): Timken 18690
Wheel Seal: Timken 455860
Axle Shaft Flange Gasket: Fel-Pro 55350
Axle Nuts and Washer Kit: QK4763
The axle nuts require a 2-3/8" socket.
Lug Stud: 6413166 (Napa)
Lug Nut: Dorman 611161
My lug nuts and studs are 9/16". I believe every other truck had 1/2" studs.
