Just as a matter of interest ,for those do it your self guys and mechanics, what do you use to tap the new bearing cone back into the hub? I,iuse a little brass mallet to start it, and can usually get them down to flush with the housing, but on carefull examination they are sometimes not all the way
home, its that final little bit that you can do some damage if not careful or not using the right implement!...lol. Can go bush makanic and sit the old bearing in the cone with a bit of wood across it and
seat it
home , but Yuck!!.
Cheers Axle.
