Re: wheel bearing repost for bc 200 82

"...heated hub and frozen bearing race system really helps if you don't have a press to install the new inner and outer races..."

Really -- All you need is a hefty brass punch and good-sized ball peen hammer -- and maybe somebody to show you how -- and you can have those bearing and cups in 'n out 'n in 'n out in no time. And 'cause you won't need to heat the hub you won't need to clean out all the grease packed up inside.....

A thought to ponder over your next cold one: A frozen bearing cup will condense moisture, introducing water onto the bearing surface....

Best to use long fiber wheel bearing grease.
