I’ve had a month off from working on the car. I’ve been playing about with my zx10r for a bit so now i feel a bit more refreshed and ready to crack on with some more.

One of the front wheel wheel bearings was shot so I decided to do both at the same time.
I pulled the hubs apart which left the inner race on the hub flange



i ended up cutting into the race and beating it with a hammer and chisel to get them off.
Then pressed the outer races out using a hydraulic press.




At the same time I remembered I have longer studs to fit for the lager brake conversion which requires spacers




after that I pressed the new bearings in making sure the magnetic ring is facing inwards on both hubs




then gave them a lick of paint along with the front shocks and springs




i also managed to paint the front arb. Hopefully all this will dry by tomorrow, but I’m also going for a few brewskis this evening so who knows how much I’ll get sorted tomorrow
