Thanks guys. I had a real hard time getting the old inner bearing off the spindle. Its stayed on and I had to use a cold chisel to get it off. I hope getting the new one back on won't be too hard.

I will seat the inner bearing inside the rotor (bearings in freezer and will heat the rotor) put the sealing washer on, and then fit the rotor onto the spindle.

Is there any trick or method to get the rotor to then seat all the way in on the spindle? Do you just push the rotor towards the center of the car?
