[QUOTE="RePhil, post: 500213, member: 14491"] Thanks gents. Got one in OK but I damaged the inner race on the other as I was using it to, hopefully, keep the whole bearing in alignment as I forced it in. Eventually managed with my 46mm socket & a hydraulic puller to push it in. I used shims around the ODs of anything that could move to try & keep everything in line. It still tried to go off line but popped in at the last minute - & surprised me. Tried the freezer for a while but tbh by the time I was all set up to go it was probably back up to ambient. Need another bearing now! Not the easiest of jobs. Phil. [/QUOTE]
