Title: Bearing Press
Post by: hightower on 12 February 2014, 11:54:34 am

Love working in a school. DT department has just made me a bearing press ready for me to change my front bearings.


That's saved me a few shilling, or the need to have to find the right size socket to hammer it home.


Rentals will be available ;)

That's all it was Raz, but still saved me a few quid. Bit of threaded bar with a 38mm bit of alloy at one end to act as the press.
