Installing the restored and cleaned up stubs into the rear bearings. Since it is a very tight fit, I put the stubs in the freezer overnight, and heated the bearing carrier a bit before pressing. It went in super easy! These are ready to install onto the rear spindles. Up next is pressing the front bearings into the hubs… and those too are in the freezer to help out. When I took measurements of the hub and bearing at room temperature, the bearing was about 2/10,000ths larger than the hole it is supposed to go in, which is certainly a bit of an interference fit.
