i was trying to get the bearings out of my 87 front hubs and tore it up...how do you take these out...oh and i need another hub to replace the one i messed up,anyone have a extra?thanks

well about all you can do is get a punch and turn the hub over and tap on the opposite bearing. I mean beat it to death. there hard as hell to get out. put never seize on em when u put em back together. check ebay.

I have some 86's still on a bike. I can pull them pretty quick and get them shipped if you need.

[trx250rider]

[pdxbigfoot]

Sell the pair as not to have a TRX hub floating around for a paperweight.
Hows $45.00 shipped

if your single then you can put in the oven at the lowest setting ~175 and let it sit in there for 30 minutes then tap the bearing out. then back in the oven for 30 and out to tap the other beaing out. Just did it a couple weeks ago.


If your married or living witho someone, good luck. Seriously doubt she will let you use the oven or even bring in the greasy parts and tools. :D

a 5 pound shop hammer is a must. No nail claw hammer BS. I keep old phone books to stack up and use. this work on motors too. :)

juss take a propane torch en heat it up and with it laying on a 2x, tap the bearings out with a regular hammer en blunt punch or equivelant. no BFH needed to do this. :cool:
