Brothers Trucks Forged Hub/Roller Bearing Conversion for Chevrolet/GMC 1947-1959
$306.95

If you're looking to beef up your ride with something that really makes a difference, check out this forged hub and tapered bearing conversion. Trust me, it’s a solid upgrade from the original assemblies you’ve got. We’re talking about a design that’s not just stronger, but also safer—perfect for those who push their trucks a bit harder than the average driver.

This setup features a 6 on 5-1/2” bolt pattern, which means it’s going to fit a range of classic Chevys like the 1500 from '54 all the way to the Fleetmaster in '48. It also works with several other models from '48 to '59, including the Fleetline and even the Sedan Delivery. So, if you’ve got one of those beauties sitting in your driveway, this could be the upgrade you didn’t know you needed.

What’s great about this conversion is how it improves your ride quality. The tapered bearings reduce friction, which means smoother steering and less wear and tear on your components. Plus, it’s designed to handle more load, so whether you’re hauling gear or just cruising around town, you’ll feel the difference.

Installation is pretty straightforward if you’ve got some mechanical skills. Just make sure to check your fitment; it’s designed specifically for those older Chevys, so if you’ve got a truck from that era, you’re in good shape. A few folks have mentioned how it clears up any issues they had with stock parts, and they’ve noticed a big improvement in handling.

So, if you're ready to get serious about your ride, this forged hub and bearing conversion is a no-brainer. It’s a solid piece of gear that’ll keep you rolling safely and smoothly for years to come.
