One more question.. how do I get the ineer side of bearing off the hub?
After I get the hub out, bearing will break.. how should I get it off the hub?

Thanks
Sasha

i usually use a press. since it sounds like you don't have one, i'd place a metal block over the hole in the hub and use a standard puller.

You can also dremel 90% of the way through it and then use a chisel to crack the last bit and expand the race so it slips off the hub.

One more question, can I grease the bearing? It seems that it would go easier if it's greased.. is it a wise thing to do?

Thanks
Sasha

Definite +1 pn checking for all the tools... the tool that I got is missing round insert that fits inner side of bearing...

Does anyone have a SIR tool for sale? I'd like complete one with the hub puller.

Or is anyone near seattle that can rent me a tool?

Thanks
Sasha
