67' GP Front Wheel bearings will not hold!
Crazy issue here and never had this problem before:
67' GP drum front brakes Had an issue with wheel bearings not holding adjustment and previous owner did not use seals when inspected. Got all new bearings, races, seals, installed..same deal. Drive it around the block, come back & jack it up..wheel is flopping! At this point I'm thinking the machining depth on the drums where races install are wrong or the back shoulder of my spindle is bad. Even though when I cleaned & inspected it all looked good and I test fitted bearings on spindle before packing & install.

Pop the races out and see if they match the bearings; might be wrong series bearing (what brand?)

National Bearings,
Check the angle of the race vs the angle of the bearing cage your saying?

You can get Timkin bearings on e-Bay that are made in the USA..
Check to see that the bearing race isn't spinning.. |

Inner bearings should be A6 or Br 6
