The old bearing is removed by
tapping it from the back using a
rod or punch passed through
the other bearing. It is best to
use brass or other soft metal,
but if bearing is being replaced,
it is okay to use a steel rod.
Gently work around the race
with a series of gentle taps.
Using excessive force can cock
the bearing and make removal
difficult and/or damage the
aluminum hub. Once one
bearing is out, go to the other
side and repeat procedure to
remove the other bearing (see
Figure 10).

new bearings into the hub
using a hammer, making sure
that the bearing is not cocked. It
is best to alternate to opposite
sides of the race as shown in
the two pictures at right. Do not
strike the inner race of the
bearing or it may be damaged
(see Figure 11).
