Freeze the Fag bearings overnight then have a can of aerosol keyboard cleaner handy when installing. Flip the can upside down and empty half on each bearing - the gas comes out as a sub zero stream that will reduce the mass of the bearing enough to slide it into the race without much pounding. Do this in Texas today and you can skip the freezer part.......... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif)
