Hey guys I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to press the hub bearings into the old carriers.  Considering that I have had this done at a professional machine shop and this is the 2nd time I am doing it, I just don't trust them.
I Don't know why. But everybody's always talking about their STI or That guys EVO, I think I'll stick with my old, but reliable AmC. Did I ever tell you I was Full blooded Eagle?

Make sure the race doesn't just plop in. It should take a bit of pressure. Could be made in China bearings too. (look on the bearing. I've had people buy the made in US stuff and return the made in China crap from elsewhere. It got so bad we had to start inspecting and marking the parts before they went out)
AMC/Jeep gauges are for amusement only. Any correlation between them and reality is purely coincidental!
