Has anybody got any advice for changing rear wheel bearings? Got a recon beam but it was only up to the hub pin! So I'm having to take the brake assembly off of the old and put it on the recon, Bearings and all! Need some advice about taking bearings off and back on, already shagged one though :(

Cheers,
Mark

Use a hub puller to get them off, and use a drift to put them back on the recon beam. Do it carefully though!
