need help quick, in a pickle

Hello all, I am not sure where to post this for a quick answer but I am in a jam. I ordered and received EBC rotors from tirerack and I am putting them into my wife's Ford Explorer '92 4x4. The bearings will not fit, they are too big for the races. The rotore match in all other respects, but the bearing and grease seal aren't even close. I know some people here did an upgrade to the EBC but am I missing something?

Please help...

Jim

I would go and try bearings and seals for similar years at a parts store...i ran into that with my truck and different hubs.

Well, I'm an idiot. I purchased the 54mm height, when it should have been the 64mm. According to the sticker on the explorer it has 4.10 gearing and uses the larger hat on the rotor. It has the factory tow package which I assume is why there is a difference. I need to call them this week and try to get them to swap, it's the same price and I bearly had the new one out of the box.

Anyway, thanks for the wuick response to my problem.

Jim
