RE: Pressing out Wheel bearings
are you replaceing them... if you are a screwdriver and hammer will get them out... you have to find the seat on the inside of the hub.... other than that i usually just bring them in toss the guy 20 bucks and they will pull them.... you can also go to auto zone and rent a bearing puller... gets it done!

RE: Pressing out Wheel bearings
I was checking out the inside and there is not much of a lip on between the bearing and the sleeve. I'm taking it to my Tiumph guy in the moring to rip off the tire...might see if he can get them out.........gotta get this to the powder coater fast. I would rather keep these bearings as they don't have that many mile on them.

RE: Pressing out Wheel bearings
Dizzzy I haver never done wheel bearings like the aforementioned method. The inner spacer and wheel bearings are pressed together flush. When I make my axle wheel bearing spacers, I use 0.001" clearance. That is not much to grab onto. If you wish to get them out, you may use a "RedHead". The cheap mans wheel bearing puller. I own a Jims & it costs me $265 if my memory serves me correctly. I R & R a lot of bearings in my life and the screw driver method is as new one on me. I, for one, would like to learn how it is done.
