Jan, will your axles require a new support bearing and/or bracket or will those be included?
RE: RMW driveshaft replacements! - Jan - 06-02-2014 09:42 AM
the bearing is supposed to be on the axle

Thats good because i think that the pressing and re pressing of the old bearing onto the new axle was a problem for some without the correct tools.

^^ This. And there's no separate part number for the bearing bracket, so without a good press, you can't pre-install another bracket and swap axles correctly in a few hours.

It's not the press that's key on that's key it's more the press tools.

I've used a vise instead of a press. And yep, getting something just the right size is a PITA, even in a shop.

Used a vice? At that rate you should have just used a hammer cave man

Cave men only had rocks and clubs, there were no BFHs back then. Haha
