    I need some help. I took off the old bearings, seals and retainers; I cleaned and painted the unit and will be reinstalling them soon. I purchased new bearings and seals; however, they don't seem to fit.

    Does anyone have some photos? I think the auto parts store may have given me the wrong stuff.

    Thanks.

    In those cases I compare the numbers from the old stuff you removed with the new parts numbers. I can give you the GM numbers if that will do you any good.

    That would probably help, they can cross reference it at the shop. I kept all the other bearings; but, I can't find them.

    Thanks.
