  • Help! Rear End 1972 Caddy Superior

    Help! I have been going crazy with the rear end of my 1972 Cadillac Superior Combo. It started with stripped & busted off rear wheel studs. MANY thanks to Kaptinkaos on here for sending me those parts.

    However, when pulling the passenger rear axle, the wheel bearing came with it. Noticing the "race"? was worn & can slide in & out by hand, not to mention a little metal shavings/fragments, some attention needs to be paid to fix this.

    Trying to find WHICH year, make & model would be a compatible replacement since NONE of the auto parts stores have listings for 1972 Commercial Chassis. Regular Fleetwood or Fleetwood 75 parts do not mach up.

    HELP HELP, PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!
