+1, what I use. FWIW, will not work on a FJR due to bearing size.I use pitt posse bearing toolkit works great and has many removal adapters to do most bearings.
It looks like we lost some posts John. Just delete yours if you want and I'll try to repost mine.Yes it just needs to be in contact - too much and you side load it. Too little and clamping the axle side loads the bearing. I intend to redo the video next time I replace the bearings. I have all of the pieces - and show it with an 'anvil' on the first bearing when driving in the second bearing. That way, the side loading cannot happen when the second is driven in.
Sorry, had to to try and sync things up.. I'll try a diff approach next time.It looks like we lost some posts John. Just delete yours if you want and I'll try to repost mine.
- and of course, don't forget that it matters which bearing you put in first. Check the service manual, and note that the front and the rear wheels are different in this respect.My reminder to next person using it is: as you drive 2nd bearing, stop frequently to check the distance collar - once bearing just touches collar, STOP. It's easy to go too far, and restrict the bearings' movement. But if it doesn't touch, torquing the axle nut may well deform bearing as it tightens, making it too tight after you've reinstalled wheel
