Lyn,The 1.563 is a common dimension for a 35 spline axle , and some 33 splines also. ... Gm, Ford,and Mopar all use it on some axles....The 1.532" dim. is common to Ford ,33 spline ,small bearing housings and some GM. ......As for the 1.525" id on the new bearing, I have no references to that diameter.........If the brg. dia. is different, I'd also check the dimension from the outside of the flange to the bearing shoulde ras well, to make sure it is correct. ....You may just have gotten a mispackaged set of bearings, hopefully. .........Tom
