Can Bearing Be Reused When Installing Kodiak Disc Brake Kit with Races Installed
Question:
I am converting my 5th wheel trailer to disc brakes and the new kodiak rotors come with races installed. Providing my bearings are the correct size and still good shape can they be used in the pre-installed races? I have always figured that bearings and races were sort of a set and a bearing should stay with the race it came with.

Helpful Expert Reply:
If your current bearings are good you can reuse them with a Kodiak disc brake kit that has the races already installed like the Kodiak kit part # K2HR712E. The bearings do not have to always match the original races that were used in the hub.
