Man this project has fought me every step of the way.
When I removed the upper outer race I broke it when chiseling it out. The lower race came out fine, I was going to use it as a spacer when trying to press in the new races. I was going to cut it with the dremmelso it had a little give so I can get it out of the steering head rather easily. Well that was a mistake, damn thing snapped in half. I was able to use part of it to get the upper race set, but its not going to help at all on the lower. I may try to jb weld it since I will be using a threaded rod and some washers to try and press it into the frame. |

Do you happen to have a bearing driver set? Something like this?
I have a bearing driver set, and that's exactly what I use for knocking races into place. A few good hits with a deadblow hammer and you're done.

Excellent. I know it'll be a good beer.
![]() Also, go ahead and toss the race in the freezer before you head to HF.

picked up that set at hf, should do the trick, I just have to put the race back in the freezer for the night then bang away at it in the morning.
