I got a 25mm bearing remover from amazon for little over 30 dollars. I just bought the handle and the collet. Motion Pro manufatures it. I removed the bearing with no problems. I got the bearing installer from the below link for ten dollars. Worked like a charm.

+1 on the auto zone puller.

 

Would happen to have the harbor freight part number?

 

Which is more tricky/difficult, pulling or installing the bearing?

How well does Georges tool install the bearings?

Thanks

 

I have George's tool, so pulling and installing the bearings is equally simple. I am sure you could pound the bearings out with a drift punch and hammer as long as you are very careful not to **** the bearing in the bore. I can imagine pounding this style of bearing into a wheel though I have read of many doing so.

 

[QUOTE=SpiderPig;7523024]I went to our local Autozone store and they have tools that they loan out with a deposit. They had a blind bearing puller there that worked on a wheel with 25mm bearings. I made a press with 3/4 threaded rod and some washers and bolts for the install. Worked very well for only a couple of bucks. Might check out your local Auto Parts store.[/QUOTE

Thanks I'll head over to O'Reilly's and see if they offer a comparable rental

 

I lost front bearings couple years ago. When i got home, i found a puller/installer from Pit Posse for less than $100. Bought set of rear wheel bearings and plan to change when I change next rear tire..... check out Pit Posse for pullers.....

 

So what bearing are you going with? Read about people being unhappy with what Harley is currently offering.

 

Pit Posse puller on Amazon right now for $85.00

 

I love new members reviving an 8yo post lol, The pit posse works great. Kinda sucks having to spend that much for 5 mins of work but if ya need it ya need it.
