>>>"outer bearing which are the same size for both" ????

The change was about mid '81. Someone swapped in a later strut asm.
Here are the dimensions I have, based on doing several of each:

EARLY Outer Bearing O.D. = 1.785", I.D. = .748"
LATE....Outer Bearing O.D. = 1.810", I.D. = .865"

I don't see how you could interchange them. The Early one won't fit on the Late spindle -- and The Late one won't fit in the Early hub.

What am I missing here?
