Default Re: Fitting New Front Hub Bearings

Using a hammer and a drift or a punch will put the new races in. Hammer them down good and alternate hits around the race to drive them home. Pack the new bearings by hand by putting grease in the palm of your hand, wiping the grease in the open side of the bearings until it comes out along the rollers. I use Quaker State multipurpose wheel bearing grease made for disc brakes because it will travel to the hot spots instead of running away. (supposedly)
