★ This tapered bearing is supplied as a complete set with cone (inner ring) and cup (outer ring). Suitable for front and rear wheels where bearings marked 18590 are used.
Application
Dana 25 front axles and Dana 27 full-floating rear axles. According to category classification: vehicles with front axle MB, CJ2A, CJ3A, CJ3B, M38, M38A1, rear axle MB/GPW, and wheels CJ3A/CJ3B. Check the marking on your existing bearing before ordering.
Installation notes
Always fit tapered bearings in opposed pairs. Two complete sets are required per wheel hub (inner and outer bearing). Follow correct torque specifications and adjust endplay or preload according to manufacturer's instructions. Bearings must be clean and grease-free during fitting, fill with suitable wheel bearing grease after installation.
Compatibility
Note: vehicles with Dana 27 front axles (from approx. 1960) often use bearings marked LM-501349 instead of 18590. Always check the marking on your existing bearings. This bearing does NOT fit Dana 27 axles with LM bearings. Race/cup 52943 is an alternative part number for the same application.
Historical context
Tapered bearings of this type were used from WWII until the 1960s on military and civilian jeeps. The tapered roller construction with conical rollers and raceways ensures optimal load distribution and long service life under severe conditions.
