Hi all,
I just got a standard rear wheel bearing to replace my noisy one, and guess what -it doesn't fit (even though the part no. is the same on the auto directory). Standard ID of the bearing is 28mm and mine is 35mm.

New hub and bearing unit from FORD is £369 (!!!) so I continued to try replace mine by buying a separate bearing.
I tried pressing the bearing off, with no luck. Went up to 10T of force, and then heated the unit up to about 150degC, but still it did not budge. I can only assume that they require some custom tools to replace them. The space on the outside bearing race to press a new one in is also only about 1.5mm, so I would need to make a custom ring to press the new one on again...

Has anyone done this in the past to avoid having to lump out £369...?

Thanks!
