What is recommended choice here for trailing arm rear wheel/stub axle bearing - there are two available at Pelican Parts: FAG @ $37.50 with four star rating and SKF @ $75.00 with three star rating?

How cold is your freezer? I have one that runs about -30 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
As long as it's been in say 12 hours and the hole is well cleaned out I don't have much issue. Maye some light tapping with a drift or I jury rig a length of threaded rod to pull it in. but yeh... you're always going to run into that boitch, guess I've been lucky, I should be, because I've ran into my fair share of fuchery with other poop.

Coldest day I've seen here was -35...the day I moved into this house. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) Normal temps are around 15-32F this time of year, I don't care as my shop has good heat. |

Wha...!? You must be in the Banana Belt. I've seen -40 down here in the south. For installing rear bearings, I freeze the bearings and use the HF Front Wheel Bearing Adapter set. I don't know why they call it a front adapter set. It works great on rear bearings to install without using hammers. BTW, for removing bearings, Autozone offers a free slide hammer bearing set as a loaner. For their loaner tools, you pay for the tool and they refund you when you return it. My store doesn't even limit how long you keep it. |
