awesome video, I'll add grease to each bearing before fitting. dust seals off carefully, fill the bearing with water proof quality high temp grease and then reseal and install. OEM bearings all tend to be under greased. love the tools makes life so much easier. My son's bike at 30hrs had the rear wheel bearings seize, caused a very serious off resulting in 3cm break on his collarbone, he gave up riding after the accident, so can't stress enough the importance of good quality preventative maintenance

@@TokyoOffroad I ordered the kit a year ago. After 450 hours my rear wheel bearings needed replacement (2017 KTM 300XC). can't believe they lasted that long. anyhow, it was very easy with this kit, money very well spent. Of note, the collar inside the hub took some work to get out of the way to use the hammer/punch method. It's very helpful to get the hub around 200 deg F. to punch the bearings out. I also installed the skf bearings and seals which are very good quality. Threw on a brand new M5B tire and zero bearing play. Great tutorial!

@@CW-up7xv - I'm pleased to hear the wheel bearing press tool worked well for you. Yes, definitely heat the hub before removing the old bearings to minimize the chance of damaging the hub. The key to long bearing life is minimizing water penetration in to the bearings.

I find for removing the seals the easiest way is to use a pair of vise grips to lever off the old bearing, super easy, of course a proper seal remover is ideal but anyone that has tools has a pair of vise grips. In my experience I've never had to heat up the hub, wheel bearings usually come out easy enough with little effort just don't hit them too hard on one side or they get stuck

@ashwillmot205118 күн бұрын
I did a friend's rear wheel bearings recently. It would appear that the KTM kit which included new spacers and everything had a centre spacer that was slightly longer than the distance between the two seating lips of the hub. I only noticed this once I had it all back together. A local mechanic told me that he regularly has to make sure he does not drive the second bearing outer race all the way home. He stops short when the inner race contacts the spacer tube. What a crap design perhaps? Or did the engineers allow for a certain amount of crush in the system when the rear wheel is torqued correctly? Im thinking I might need to do it again so that the bearings are not being side loaded. What are your thoughts? It would appear that your tool only drives the thing in till the inner race hits the spacer tube. Guess I should get one.
@TokyoOffroad18 күн бұрын
Sorry to hear about the problem. Yes, that's an advantage of using a press tool like I offer as excessive side load will not be applied to the bearing during installation if you stop pressing it in when you feel an increase in resistance as shown in the video. The tool significantly reduces the chance of messing up the installation.

If you are on the US search Alpha Moto 12pc bearing puller on Amazon. It’s the exact same.

no grease?

BrookJ88 - No, don’t use grease to press the bearings in. By heating the hub and cooling the bearing, they should press in easily using the press tool.

Just throw the new bearing in the freezer for 15 mins. Done.

Did you watch the video? I did (and always do) put the new bearings in the freezer. They don’t just drop in on their own though. And it’s when driving them in that many people have issues when they become canted in the bore. This is the reason I developed the bearing press tool.
