Them sumbitcches just fell on, now to clean the kitchen up and install the rear. I had to use all my strength and skill to pull the bearings off the rear and overloaded the puller some, but the the installation was just textbook, heat and slip them on. Youd be doing good to remember this.
Tomorrow in another day and the install will begin again, yeah. Woody

Used to do the same thing with Norton roller main bearings using my wifes oven and R12.
