Someone correct me if I am wrong, but I think the ONLY
advantage to "green" bearings is that supposedly you don't have to set axle end

I am under the impression that the Green Bearings are not that
practical on street driven cars but do well on the drag strip. I would
be interested in comments from those of you that have had personal experience
with the Green Bearings. Dennis C. On Thursday, August 28, 2014

That is a great article and very informative, but does not
address the question as to swapping the tapered axles for flanged axles with
new green bearings, new seals, etc, I need to change center sections
and have to remove the axles anyway. This would be a good time to update
everything. The 63 tapered axle housing is as narrow as they get, so I
would like to keep it.
I am guessing that if the axle housing gaskets are the same, and the
bearings and seals are the same, the axles will interchange.
Anyone know if that is the case?

There has been a couple of discussions about tapered axles,
replacement of complete differentials and such. This may have been
covered but here is a very good article describing how to convert from a
tapered hub / brake drum unit to a standard brake drum. Much easier
to service and less expensive. This is also a good time to change
over to standard studs if you are still running the left handed studs on
the left side. http://hotrodsandhemis.com/PolaraRearBrakes/TaperedAxleBrakes.htmlDennis
