Posted by: fiid Sep 24 2003, 01:33 PM

On the advice of Brad I am considering forking out for some of Mueller's cool ass bearing foo for my suspension.

What tools do I need to fit them?

Thanks,

Fiid.

I see the difference in the instructions.. :-)

It looks like these can be tapped in using a mallet or a hammer w/ a piece of wood if care is taken.

When I decide to order them - do I go through Tarett Engineering, or is it better to go straight to you (Mike)??????

Thanks,

Fiid.

You can purchase from me, shipping would be cheaper, or even free if we meet up for an event.

The last set of rear bearings that I installed, I was able to pull a JP and use the hammer method......in engineering terms it's "use a suitable drift"
LOL

I tried a piece of wood, that didn't last long, finally a 1" thick piece of steel on top of the tube with a 5# sledge did the trick. Was not as bad as it sounds

A press would have been nice, but my Harbor Frieght special is currently about 2" too short

Hey DUDE;

Putting you on notice for a complete front and back. The V-8 is going and now we are building a 914-6. So, we will want your bearings for the entire suspension. Let me know what the price will be.
