thinking about going with green ball axle bearings

I wouldn't run them just because I love turning while going fast. I'm sure Green bearings run fine in modern applications but I'd imagine the assemblies they are used in are engineered for them, whereas the old solid rear ends were engineered to take Timken tapered bearings. I'd just feel more comfortable running what they are designed for.

Hey, at least it's better than having a dad who's not into cars at all. Not that I blame him for it, that's just the way he is, but it sure gets tough sometimes.
