66 f100 2wd front wheel bearings

Welp, my front wheel bearings failed. When I took them apart they came out in a million pieces. Does anyone have a diagram of the position and alignment of those bearings?

It seems like theres a tapered bearing and outer race towards the inside of the truck. And then maybe another smaller bearing to the outside of the truck that is now obliterated in my hub.

Any help?

The inner tapered roller bearing and race are much larger than the outer tapered roller and race.

Look at the bearings and the races, they have a BIN (Bearing Industry Number) stamped on them. This number is used by auto parts stores/bearing shops.

1957/58 F100; 1959/67 F100 2WD:

B7C-1201-A Inner (BIN: LM-48548) & B5A-1216-A Outer (BIN: LM-11949) .. Front Wheel Bearings

B7C-1202-A Inner (BIN: LM-48510) & B5A-1217-A Outer (BIN: LM-11910) .. Front Wheel Bearing Races.
