Yep, need to tap the race further into the hub. All the way to where it hits the smaller diameter bore. I use a wooden drift, cut up and rounded 2x4, to the size of the race to drive it home. Will be plenty of room left to insert the seal once you get the race all the way on. I like to put a thin coat of grease on the race, inside the hub and on the spindle as well as packing the bearing.
As mentioned earlier, recheck the bearings after a few days of driving. Do this by lifting the corner, holding the road wheel top and bottom and yank, checking for play. Shouldn't be any of course. |
