Long one short. F'ed up something when i replaced the front left wheel bearing and can buy a whole hub from the bone yard for about the same price as a new bearing. i'll check for bearing play before i yank replacement but i'm know that i bent the caliper retaining brackets when i pressed the bearing. Its currently shimmed w/ washers and that worked OK but the car is not being driven. hub klunked louder by the mile. bearing exhibits play. hub nut backed off and broke the cotter pin!?! inner grease seal was oval shaped when i pulled it and water was in the grease.)

-->? Will a B14 hub work or do i need to find a B13 body to yank from?
