Anybody know of an on-line resource for cross referencing wheel bearings? I have a '50 2 door coupe that the customer wants to put Disc on the front. I have the timken #'s off the stockers, and the rotors I'm gonna use. Need to come up with a bearing the right bore, and the race the right(or close) O.D. If the O.D. is slightly larger, I can machine the rotors to fit. My problem is I can't seem to find a place on the web to find this info, and theres got to be one somewhere!

You might try reading some of the rodding magazines like Rod & Custom, Street Rodder, etc. Their advertisers often make kits to add disk brakes to early cars. You mght also contact Stainless Steel Brakes
