This very helpful! I was very lucky I didn't have to go through any mahem, like you did. All I had to do was repack. A very educational experience. Thank you!
Most parts store will rent a race punch kit, makes it easy to install with no risk of damage. It also helps to throw the races in the freezer overnight. Good video, I like the rooster in the background. Cheers.
nice video. i don't think you can get u.s. made bearing any more. last timkins bearing i got were made in turkey. you need to buy a washer to go between nut and bearing somebody left them out. keeps bearing and nut from damage. i have went thru that a lot it even worse when bearing locks up. take care, be safe and well.
@@NorthwindGarage Sometimes there is not enough room behind the nut for a washer and if you put one in it won’t give you enough room for the cotter pin so look carefully before hand…
As I am trying to install the new races, it required hammering down on it with a piece of wood, and once it was below the surface of the outside of the hub it is damn near impossible to somehow hammer it all the way in to where it stops at the little knobs. Insanely tight and beyond infuriating.
You may have to really clean the surface where the new bearing assembly goes in. Very close tolerance there. Rightfully so to prevent movement after tightening. Also check your new parts to make sure you have the right one. Hope that was helpful. Thanks for watching! ✌ 🇺🇸

that was a lot of work Bro... nice job
looks like that tire has seen better days though, be careful with that
good luck...Peace
bro, why are you reusing a cotter pin? Its such a critical component, and so cheap to replace?
Thanks For Watching 🇺🇸🙂 👍
Just did this yesterday! I'm gonna start checking them more often! I used a hammer and punch from in behind
Bearn puller works really well.
I'll try it next time thanks for the info and Thanks for Watching! 🇺🇸👍🧔

For the sake of sanity 26:00 , use a piece of wood to sink the front racer

Cut just one side of your old race with a grinder, and use it as the driver. Then just pull it out when the new one seats. Ezy.
My seal and racer was impossible to get in

Good work, I can't help but wonder why, for 45 bucks, you didn't just get a whole new prepacked hub?
Because they didn't have one on the shelf and I needed the trailer that day. Hope that explains it. Respectfully thanks for Watching 🇺🇸🙂👍
Buy a complete hub kit ......
NEVER, EVER use heat on an axle. Tempered steel strength is compromised when you do this. Use the proper tools for the job or leave it to the pros.
