I would really doubt any new bearings are required, save your money.Coops wrote:I may try and get some bearings for it here in the UK and put new bearings in the axle while out and maybe look at getting a set of 3.55 gears and do it all now.
bugger may need shims too
If he has used Ford Racing parts or OEM Ford crownwheel etc, you shouldnt need any new shims. I've plenty here anyway. Although I think they're only like $15-20 for a pack.
Or I'm sure Andy has plenty
A new Ford CWP isnt expensive either

Fairly sure I've a used one here I'll probably never use again. Although at the price of a new one....is nice to buy new, comes with a new pinion nut as well which strictly speaking you're supposed to replace ( although Ive just loctited mine plenty of times )
The axles are pretty simple.
