yep, looks all complete there mate.
very very easy to change. get a haynes manual ;)
... and a big socket the same size as the bearing helps to beat it out lol
for a rear you actually need a punch/drift to get the old bearings out ;)
It will just fall out when you remove the drum, well, mine did anyway,Lol.
Then replace with the new one, but make sure you dont overtighten the nut,Lol.
you did change the race didnt you? :s
I wasn't changing the bearing, i was removing the brake drum.
But the bearing just fell out, must have just been the roller bearing tho, not the other bit.
the rollers and inner race will fall out, but the outer race needs knocking out and the one fitting
That explains it then, the part that fell out when rolling down my drive :p Lol
okay?!?!?!? so whats a punch/drift when its at home?
a punch.. its a rod of metal that you can hammer to get stuff out.....
a drift is very very similar
