I think they get grooved after the bearings seize a bit.  Get some new ones. Cam

Take some pictures and keep us updated on the progess....  always fun to do a resto and ride project.  Good luck and ask ??? if needed, most will give input when they can and allot will just read and move on if they don't know......  hence allot of views but not allot of replys....
