M35A2 Rear Wheel Bearings

[randygk]

Great website, forgive me if subject was posted before., I couldn't find it.
Recently purchased a '67 M35A2 and all rear axles/sides leaking. Upon removal of bearings and seals I noticed the inner bearing (Timken 3994) and outer bearing (Timken 392) use the same race (Timken 3920). My industrial bearing supplier that he has seen this before, but it is not normal , as they are two different series bearings. Any comments?
Thanks
Randy

Yes the races are the same, I have all the bearings and seals in stock if you need some

Bigger face on the outer bearing. Same as on the front axle. I had thought that it was more area for the jam nut on front and seal /jam nut on the backaxle.

Welcome to the very best website!

Normal or not, those numbers are correct for ALL M35 model axles!
