851 Wheel bearings

According to the Ford Parts Manual the correct bearing/retainer kit for this tractor with early s/n is CBPN-1200-B. When this kit arrived from the parts house I found that both inner and outer bearings are wrong. They are too tall and too large in diameter to fit in my hubs. The seal/retainer is correct though.

Can anybody help me out in ordering the correct bearings for these hubs?

They show two differant ones for the 800.
One is before serial #137818 with hub NCA-1104-C 1953-1956
Then one is after serial #137818 with hub NCA-1104-B 1957/
Then in 1958 on 801's they changed to a third one. 1958/ They do not show a hub # for this one. Since yours was built in 1957 it may have either the late 800 hub or the 801 hub. Hard to say.
They have a 4th listed but it is for the industral front end 801.

This is why when I bought my bearings I took them to a bearing seller and had them measured. I can not put my hand on recite right now but if I can find it I will post back.

I am sure of the part number on the hubs. I sandblasted both hubs and they both are the same number. I thought the 6 was an 8 until I took off the old paint. It is a 6 for sure. And I ordered from the parts book as if it was a late 800 or an early 801. That didn't work for me.

If I don't get some help from a New Holland dealer tomorrow, I will do the same thing you did, go to a bearing house and have them match up the bearings.

Thanks for the reply,
