jacobd Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Hey guys, I got a monster wheel bearing from a triple 7 caterpillar dump truck. I'm trying to find any material or manufacturers mark (been in class all day), but haven't found one. Any ideas as what it might be made of or disassembly? I might just wait until I build a bonfire and anneal it there, and then take a die grinder and cutting wheels to it unless any other advice is offered.

jacobd Posted August 27, 2014 Author Share Posted August 27, 2014 Wheel bearing, won't fit my Malibu or Camaro. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Ivan Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 Email/call CAT and ask. Ballpark guess is it is 52100 for the bearings though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arftist Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 I wouldn't anneal it unless you are going to make something from it. I would remove the cage and rollers and use the rest as a dishing form for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jacobd Posted August 27, 2014 Author Share Posted August 27, 2014 I had a good idea, results will be posted in the future to determine if it is a good idea or just an idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
