    Needs press that's for sure I get one off ebay for about 100 then it's to preload bearing right by using shims is pita as they are special order. So if you have time then it's not rocket science.

    Preloading a bearing ensures that it doesn't have any (or excessive) free play. This is achieved by shims. Too much and the bearing will run hot and wear out quickly, too little and it may move or not sit correctly and can cause vibration.

    Get you now .so like on a wheel bearing you tighten the nut so you get a certain amount of nm drag on it .
    Next question the where do I get the shims and and what should the preload be on them or is it diffent from bearing to bearing
