Muncie Bearing Retainer


Anyone have a good Muncie bearing retainer they would sell. Mine always had a small leak on the front. I thought this one was in good shape but it appears this groove must have been created with a scarred gland nut. I'm in Regina. Let me know what you have and a price. Thanks in advance.

Where is it leaking from? Is it cracked?

Not cracked. But according to what I have read, if the surface where the gland nut runs close to is damaged, the hydroseal doesn't work properly and it will leak past the nut into the tube portion of the retainer. Just what I've read. No expert here. Lol

The groove shown in the surface where the angled part of the gland nut runs close to is not in any pictures I can find online

Only one I haven't is ok but not perfect. I can feel a slight ridge, very slight, where the release bearing runs.
