[QUOTE="David Trustrum, post: 107441, member: 21529"] You have to tap the centre spacer sideways until there is enough of the bearing exposed to catch the edge of a punch on (sharpen to square the edge) so you can tap them out from the opposite side (through this spacer). This may take some time to start them off and cause you to say naughty words. Once the spacer is free, move it around & gradually tap them out. You can warm the hub up a bit to aid the process. Put the new bearings in the freezer to shrink them & warm the hub. Tap them in with a correct size socket so force is only put on the outer race. Don’t forget the spacer!! After market is just fine though flick out at least one dust seal as this will not stop water getting in, only slow it getting out. Bearings die when exposed to water & grit. Road bike ones last seemingly forever. Depends on where you ride & how good your seals are. [/QUOTE]
