okay so I have a 1990 mustang 5.0, I recently had the inner bearings on my passenger side go out and actually melted to the spindle. So I just thought okay, just a freak thing that happened. So I bought a new spindle and new bearing seals, etc. and replaced them. After putting everything back together it looked fine everything fit fine. I drove it around for about 30 minutes that same day and everything was okay. The next day I took it back out and not 20 minutes into it I hear a scrapping sound coming from the front passenger side so I pulled over and the bearings had completely melted away and the bearing ring was again melted to the spindle and both times I couldn't get the ring off the spindle. I don't know what to do or why it is happening please help!!!

Two posts of the same topic is generally frowned upon. You've already gotten some replies on the other one. @Noobz347 Can you merge these?

No worries. It just confuses search results and reduces redundancy of replies.

I don't think so, but go to thread tools just under the post title and see if it gives you the option.
