Corvette Rear Wheel Bearing Shim & Spacer Car Set: 1963-1982

Designed for true Corvette enthusiasts, the Corvette Rear Wheel Bearing Shim & Spacer Car Set: 19631982 delivers precise, factoryaligned spacing for rear hub service on C2 and C3 generations. When you’re rebuilding or refreshing rear wheel bearings, this kit provides the exact components needed to restore proper preload and alignment without guesswork.

• Two complete rear bearing setups in one kit: Contains enough pieces for two rear wheel bearing setups, so you can service both sides or keep a ready spare.
• Includes 2 spacers: The kit provides two spacers to ensure correct hub spacing during reassembly and to help maintain consistent bearing preload.

Why this matters for your Corvette:

• Precise preload and alignment are critical for smooth operation, reduced wear, and longer bearing life. This set helps you achieve the correct fit the first time.
• Timesaving convenience with two complete setups means fewer trips to the parts shelf and less downtime during a bearing service.
• Perfect for 19631982 Corvette rear hubs ensures compatibility with the classic C2 and C3 models, aligning with factory specifications.

Who benefits most:

How to use (practical guidance):

• During bearing service, compare existing shims to the new shims in the kit to determine the required thickness adjustments.
