Wheel Bearings Replacement, Cross-Reference, Timken, Wheel Wobble

Hey Shredding rubber,
What bearing did you use? You used a 1 inch bearing or two that added an inch?
Did that mess with the caliper alighment.
I swapped my rears for alballs and used the Motion Pro tool. made my own long driver bit.
I thought about using a wider better bearing but went with the original width and allballs in the rear at 8K miles. I will be doing the front next season with a new tire.
I would like to go your route with a wider better bearing that last.

Been running the allballs bearings since last year.
I haven't heard anything bad about them.
I will change them out at every other tire change. Inexpensive enough.
No problems here.
I used never-seeze when installing the bearings for easy removal.
The original Harley (china) bearings had rusted!
I ride in all weather and you need to go the extra in weatherizing.

Per multihdrdr, i bought the pit posse bearing tool. It paid for itself already and it works well.
