are the bearings for early /late front discs different , from memory they are, but is there an intermediate type?

just trying to save obsolete parts again

Yep.. IIRC early stub axles have a smaller outer bearing, then there is a stub axle with an early disc with a larger outer bearing, then the later disc type... Stub axles save... bearings... mmm I wouldnt want to use a second hand one, although that might be a better option than the chinese ones GSF are selling......

hi

yeah, it's all b0llocks, you would have thought that they would have changed the bearings at the same time as the discs, but they didn't!
c*nts!
