Yeah Gunner, first of all, he should've never used semi-metallic brake pads or he wouldn't have had to change out that rotor to begin with. I use composites and still have the original rotors on my '78.
Second, the entire bearing set must be replaced even if just one component of it gets messed up. They are matched sets and the stack should be installed exactly how they are packaged in the box.
Third, that spindle nut should never, ever be backed off. Those are torqued to a minimum of 100 ft.-lbs. and further tightened until the slots line up with the hole in the axle end.
What a 'tard... LOL
And BTW, don't use those orange seals. The factory green ones (SKF/Chicago Rawhide) are thicker and stay lodged in the steering knuckle and bearing cap bores much better.
