[QUOTE="QLD_KDX, post: 1042092, member: 63023"] sweet. as far as removal goes, you'll never drive them out with a hammer and socket - you need to make up a press. I used a long bolt, a socket and a short piece of steel pipe with a really thick washer or flat steel plate. Basically, the socket goes onto the bolt, then bolt goes through the bearing. On the other side of the bearing place the pipe onto the bolt followed by the washer then the nut. nip it all up, tweak it to get correct alignment then tighten the nut. The socket will press the bearing out and into the pipe. The washer needs to be really strong or it will bend - a piece of flat steel plate with a hole the diameter of your bolt is ideal. You can use this to press the new bearing in as well - you won't need the pipe of course but your washer has to brace against the opposite side of the swing arm in order to pull the bearing in. Clear as mud?! If you can't understand my rambling, let me know and I'll try to draw a picture for you. cheers, Andrew [/QUOTE]
