    Default Wheel bearing/hub

    Having a heck of a time getting new wheel bearing/hubs back on the spindle. Not sure of year but took front strut assemblies from a wrecked E34 and adapted them to a motorcycle trailer we're building. Old hubs came off relatively easily and surface looks good. Thought about putting new hubs in oven for 1/2 hour or so at 200 degrees. Any one have any thoughts or magic? Thanks, Randy Boone. p.a.boone@att.net.

    this is definitely off topic and a challenging question. I would guess an answer but with not enough information and the vodka kickin I couldnt do much but raise hell or have fun. How and what are you trying to press these bearings onto?

    Make sure you have the right hubs to match the old spindles:
