      Moser 12 bolt axle bearing

      Hello everybody,

      Thanks ahead of time for answering my question; It may be obvious for some!

      I ordered a moser 12 bolt with c clip eliminator, bolt-in axles. I tried installing the axles tonight only to notice the bearing pressed on to each axle sticks out nearly 1/8" past the bearing end welded on the axle tubes - (The bearing itself when installed is not flush with the brake mounting surface at end of cap). Does this have any significance at all? Am i over thinking this? Should I Just bold the retainer on an call it good? Thanks for your 2 cents on this matter.

      These two shots show the bearing end and bearing pressed on the axle just as they were shipped.

      Yep the bearing will stick out some and retainer goes on it. Just like a new style big ford end.
