David, are your inside bearings crush or taperd style? Mine are taperd but the original jag rears had crushed and I did not know what the original Hi-techs had? I was told by Hi-tech, that when you adjust the rear bearings, you do it just like the front hubs. I asked this question when the first hub broke. I baught new bearings and races on both sides and made the adjustments after the first broken hub. I have done this 500 times in the last 20 years, no problems. Well, I spoke to the maker of the hubs today and hears the problem. These hubs do not break unless they are not adjusted properly. The proper adjustment includes cranking the nut down to 120 pounds plus. At that point you check the end play on the hub and it needs to be between 3 thousanths and 6 thousanths. There is a spacer/shim that slides on the shaft before it goes thru the hub. If the clearance is to loose, you add shims. If its to tight, you take away shims. Kind of a cut and paste deal until you get it right. I never had the nut cranked to 120 pounds plus and I know there was too much clearance. The hub not being dead solid, add slicks and 660hp and they eventually break. My rear pad wear was always uneven and left the rotors grooved. I never worried much about it as the fronts did most of the breaking and the cobra stoped on the dime. I did it the way I was told. Now I am going to try the new hub with the proper adjustment. Thaks for the help guys. Scott
