Does anyone have a ring gear carrier bearing adjuster on their bench or in a parts box. I need to know the size of the hex hole in the center, so i know what size nut to weld on a shaft to make a tool to loosen the bearings. I missplaced the tool i had sometime in the last 20 yrs.

I have used the end of a A-Body torsion bar, it fits right in. I forget the size so I will check it tonight and let you know.
I think the screw adjuster style started in 69, a lot of earlier 7 1/4 had shims to adjust the carrier position.
