[QUOTE="crazybrit, post: 1042261, member: 67247"] I've seen similar setups (threaded rod, two washers, two bolts) used for pressing in wheel bearings without requring you drive them in. Sounds similar .... but .... OK. How does this work when you have two bearings, one each side as in the KDX's case? Are you pressing both out? I'm assuming the inside diameter of the pipe is larger than the outside diameter of the bearing and that it rests against the outside of the swingarm pivot? As an example (assuming [ ] is the swingarm pivot): nut -- threaded-end-of-bolt -- large-washer -- pipe -- [ bearing bearing ] -- socket -- bolt-head Torquing on the nut will force the right bearing into the left and eventually it should pop both into the pipe. When you say 'socket' you are referring to say a 1/2" or 3/8" socket sized so that it can clear the inside of the swingarm pivot and also press against the outer bearing race? Can the bolt clear the inside of a socket? Hmmn. Dunno. You tell me :-) Tony [/QUOTE]
