This is not a job that I really look forward to mainly because it is time consuming when you decide to replace the races inside the hubs.

Make sure you don’t just throw new bearings on old races.  That is a good way to have a bearing failure as the bearing and race wear together.  Also, if you are repacking your bearings don’t do more than one wheel at a time as you may get your bearings mixed up and now they might be with the incorrect race.  Again, this could lead to bearing failure.  Not where you want to be.

Here’s a video of how I do this procedure. Remember this is how I do it, there are other slightly varied techniques out there. Also, never, ever, do a task you are not comfortable with. Paying someone to do this job is much less expensive than a trip to the hospital.
