To insert the the bearing you should be only touching the outer race of the bearing to hammer it in. The center stud should have the nut put on hand tight to keep it from falling into the IMS shaft as you are tapping the outer race in. It's not used for the install in any other way. I have nothing to do with LNE but I did this project last year and can't figure out what you were doing from what you posted.
This..............

Post Pictures of your issue. When I installed my LN IMS Bearing 3 years ago I spoke to Charles from LN along with Dean at Flat 6 Innovations several times over the phone, they were all very patient and helpful. Before slamming LNE I'd make sure you were performing the install correctly, good luck.
