Science Abuse Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 I need some pressed in, but have no press. I don't even think I need the old ones pressed out, I've got some empty knuckles here somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Science Abuse Posted March 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 Carquest did mine. Neat, what did they charge? I can't get a quote over the phone to save my life, they just want to say "Shop hourly rate is $80". The shits in peices, it should only take 15mins to do both, you think they'll only charge me only $20? Phaulk no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wnaplay1647545503 Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 $45 each. Take em into a firestone or simialar place and ask them. They might not charge you a whole lot if your there with the parts. Call Derek at NTB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Science Abuse Posted March 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 Well hold a second... I tend to eat these, is this all I'll need to do it on my own: http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=1666 Well, that and some big meatl circles to make sure I'm not stressing the bearing. http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=95853 Better yet, anyone I think I can easily adapt a pipe bender to use the bearing drivers: http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=32888 2 tools in half the shop space.

Mojoe Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 Is this for a suby? If so PM me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Removed Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 the middle set and a bfh and a vise is all you really need! and some big sockets... i have done it that way many many times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Science Abuse Posted March 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 Is this for a suby? If so PM me. Nosir, the DD is healthy. Thanks for the offer though. I'm leary of the hammer aproach. I don;t trust my aim, and these bearings will be carrying my ass very fast while cornering very hard. p.s. I'd considered using the bearing drive and my floor jack: Line it all up, put it under my K memember, and jack the car up with it. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIGGU Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 If you need a shop press your more then welcome to come to my house and use mine free of charge. http://www.jegs.com/i/JEGS/555/81515/10002/-1 when i did my wheel bearing on my SC i just paid some one else to do it tho These are the guys that did mine, $40 for them to be done and he did it while i waited. they even packed the bearings with grease for me. Like i said if your wanting to try it on your own you can stop by and use my press.

TurboNova Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 if all else fails walk in the back door of any dealer and ask a tech if he wants to make 20 bucks cash on the side pressing them in, works everytime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
