whats out there for the front, I see 3/4T replacement rollers but is there a replacement sleeve for the inner for the new roller bearing to butt up against and the seal the seal on, as the inner race for the ball bearing is also the sleeve for the seal to spin on.
also I have not found a calalog that offers the rear whell cylinders for the '53 1T, it stops short at 52, I have a 1-1/4" rear and a 1-1/87" front, the only mention I find for the 1-1/4" rear is for the 52 and ear;ier, will this wheel cylinder work?
the rear wheel bearing I have are barrel shaped rollers, is the a actual taper roller bearing conversion or is the stock barrel rollers sufficient.
