73 to 75 rear wheel bearing question
I am changing the trailing arms in a 1973.5 to a aluminum set and I am wondering, did the rear wheel bearings change from the '73 to the '75?
Our host seems to list a set for the 69 to 73 and a set for the 74 to 89. They look similar but is there any differences that would make the new 75 trailing arms and new brgs not work with the 73 hubs?

I have a really nice set of rear alum arms complete with everything including E brake and cables. The wheel bearings only have 4500 miles on them. I bought them for my 911 but decided to keep the steel arms. Not sure if you are looking for a set but if you are shoot me an email. Thanks, Mark

Hey John,
Thanks for the input. So I am clear, do I need to change out the '73 hubs to '75 hubs to make this work, or is it a match because the I.D. of the two bearings is the same and thus the '73 hubs will work with the 75 new bearings?

the ID is the same, so the hubs and axles will interchange.
