Bought a 12-ton press : Now how do I use it?
Bought a 12-ton press : Now how do I use it?
So I bought the Harbor-Freight 12-ton press. It came with 2x arbor places. I have a large socket kit also to use for press dies.
I need to press my rear wheel bearings out and I, for the life of me, can't figure how to do it. No matter what, I can't lay the hub flat to press the bearing out. Also, I REALLY have no idea how to do the DTSS eliminator bushing with it, considering they're pretty much 45 degrees sideways.
Can somebody show me some pictures or give an explanation on how to do it? I already shattered one casting trying to press a bearing out.
Thanks,
Richard

there is a C clip you need to remove first, then the hub and bearing can be pressed out.
the DTSS is pretty straight forward, use a socket to hold the upright and press it out. new one goes in same way, just pay attention to the orientation. make sure it's right side up.
