Does anyone know where i can find a write up for Muncie 4 Bearing replacement? Axle shafts have a lot of play and I would like to replace the bearings myself but would feel better if I had somewhat of a guide to go off of or at least some pictures before I open it up and I can't find anything on the forum or youtube. Would appreciate any info or advice. Thanks, Brendan. ------------------ "America is all about speed, hot nasty bad-ass speed" - Eleanor Roosevelt

Hey Pmbrunelle, do you know what the purpose is of those plastic shields is and if they are needed or where I could find a new one? I melted one when a ball of weld spatter melted it through the dirt.

I should have added that it needs to be wet dirt, not too thin.
I am not sure what the plastic piece does, though it is pretty loose fitting IIRC, so I don't think a small hole would be too problematic.
This is the reference to the part in the P-book:
Do you have the P-book?
If you search the GM part number, you might be able to get some on ebay.
Maybe post a pic and we can see how bad your shield looks?

Sweet I found one on ebay if I need to buy one. I do not have the P-book. I think it also kind of warped from the heat but will get a picture. The dirt was somewhat wet but I had to weld a lot to get it to shrink enough so it dried out. Will make sure it's more wet for the next 2.

The P-book.
Every Fiero person should download this. http://autoricambi-usa.com/...4-88_Euroamerica.pdf
If the race doesn't fall out on its own, you can try tapping on the outside of the case with a rubber mallet.[This message has been edited by pmbrunelle (edited 05-02-2021).]

Heat made the shield brittle and I broke it trying to scrape the mud off it. Also saw the PN of the shield I melted is the other shield listed in the P-book which I haven't been able to find for sale anywhere yet.
