I LOVE using heat when installing bearings and press fittings. I started using heat to the extreem to press in ball joints at work last year. I used to just use a ball joint press, but now I just cherry red the spindle and pop the joint in by hand. Then cool the crap out of the joint asap (yes I have melted the plastic bushings in the spherical joint once). It makes for a PERFECT press fit.
