Default Re: Changing wheel bearings, Press required?

Thank you for your reply 37. I put it back together w/ no changes- had to go to work. Glad to hear about your vacation. How was it?

From what I read subsequently, the hub must be pulled 1st with a special remover. Will try my slide hammer or break down and get a puller. Kinda like a harmonic balancer/ steering wheel 3 bolt puller with elongated fingers. You can't knock it out reverse. Then the bearing will come out. New bearing then goes on the hub and reinstall.

I hope I'm on the right track. There are no books available around here- chiltons or otherwise. Where are the good old days of separate bearings and races

TIA for your help.
