New Wheel Bearings
Written by daviddockstader on 7/19/2010 at 12:29 pm

I just took an old piece of hardened steel (maybe an old socket extension?),
ground the end nice and square, and drove the old bearings out. No big deal at
all. Then just gently tapped the new bearings in. May have used a socket between
the hammer and bearing to tap them in and get them seated.
