Ah, thanks for that info and that makes sense as the Pelican bearing is single row. And I was planning on buying the pelican kit but now I'm not sure if the center bolt will be compatible with the OEM dual row bearing.

Does anyone know?

Oh, yes, I remember reading your thread now.

Thanks for the reply.

Does anyone have a clip out of their dual row bearing laying around after installing a new bearing? I would love to buy one from someone.
