Replacing the Rear Bearings and Break Cylinders (Ford Cortina Mk3)

Then Started the Rear Mechanisms Straight away I had a Issue The Bearings were Solid as Rock and the Oil seal was Crap too the previous shit of a owner had used some sort of sealer that ruined the bearings and leaked Diff Oil So that needed to be replaced both the sides had a similar issue So went a head and replaced the oil Seals and the Bearings (For the bearings I had to do a Mod to fit them as i couldn't find the right bearings for the Cortina but Found some other That brought up ideas like the bearings will crap out soon bla bla bla... but then the Original Bearing had a single line of Balls in the bearing and this had the same single line balls aligned So what the hell it should work.

Next with the breaking had no much of a issue on the back had to replace the Brake cylinders yeah both of them that was cheep deal.
