    Wheel Bearings

    ok so i changed my rotors a while back and when i did that i found out that i needed a new bearing on t he pass. side so today i take off the rotor/hub ......when i did that the outer "race" (the thing that covers the acual balls in the bearing) ....got stuck on the hub.... i got it off about 1/4 to a 1/2 a centemeter useing every thing from a simple screw driver all the way to a blowtortch and nothing it wont come off ....



    any ideas?

      would a metal hack saw work i know it be slower but i dont have a dremel or a cut off wheel

        I did mine with a 3" cutoff wheel and a mapp gas torch. all you do is cut down the side at an angle and heat it up, you dont even have to cut all the way through. You cut enough to release the stress, and you heat it to expand the metal, i used a pickle fork ( Ball joint seperator) and a 5lb hammer and after a little work it poped right off. Dont rush it and cut too far, and dont waste your money replacing everything.

              well here is an update i took the hub to makkorkel machinery and they cut the race off without damageing the hub's shaft (which was cool cuz they did it for free ) ....then later i went back and had them press on the bearing and they did it for $10

                You don't have to change hubs at all, unless you damaged them.
