Re: [T3] Disc Wheel Bearing Install


Hi All,

I use the old race turned upside down as a drift. And
to prevent the "drift", (old race) from sticking in
the the rotor/drum, I cut a slot through the
circumference, so that it's no longer a complete
circle, (looks like a C but with a small gap).  A
hacksaw blade width is enough. But if you use a cutoff
wheel with a thin disc, that should also be fine. This
method also helps to keep the new race square to the
rotor/drum.  Use only as much force with a hammer as
is necessary.

Cheers,
