:lol: currently what I'm trying to do at the moment. Personally I'm struggling (but thats because I'm cheap and dont want to pay to get it done :thumbsup: )

If you can get a hold of a Haynes manual - it will tell you exactly what to do.

done one on a rover metro years ago and remember it being a pain in the ass to press the new bearing into hub,used a set of hub pullers to do it and swore i would never do it again but moneys tight and needs must.

got the bearing of ebay for £14 ;)

Better than I paid for mine :lol: but yea, get a hold of a haynes manual and it will tell you how to do it. It isnt the easiest thing i know that :lol:

I'm about to change the bearings on a 6n2

just need a pair of circlip pliers b4 i start!

I'm going to use a homemade clamp i made out of a bit of threaded rod and washers to get the bearings in/out. it worked a treat when i changed the rear bushes :)

job done :thumbsup:

stripped it down to the knuckle took it to a machine centre to get the bearings pressed in,circlip that held the old bearing in had to be heated to remove,it was rusted in.
