Apply a thin layer of SRAM® Butter to the outside of each new
bearing and each bearing bore.
Install the drive side bearing first.
Insert a new 6803 bearing into the drive side bearing bore of the
front hub.
Slide a SRAM 6803 bearing press tool onto the threaded rod of
the Wheels Manufacturing Press-1 Sealed Bearing Press tool. Insert
the threaded rod of the bearing press through the drive side of the
hub shell. Slide the second SRAM 6803 bearing press tool onto the
threaded rod.
Thread the bearing press handle onto the threaded rod.
Turn the threaded handle clockwise to press the bearing into the
hub until it is hand-tight.

Do not overtighten the bearing.
To prevent damage to the bearing, only use a bearing press tool
that contacts both the inner and outer races of the bearing. Do not
use a bearing press tool that contacts only one race.
Remove the bearing press tool.
Insert the axle through the hub shell assembly and through the
installed bearing.
