I did the fronts today. Put the hub in the toaster oven and heated to 375 for 30 mins. Big side went in with a few good smacks with the big hammer and another bunch of smacks just to make sure it was all the way in. Reheated and reapeated the process. Spins nice and smooth. No road test as its raining but confident its good to go.

Made sure I did not over tighten the bearing. I think that was the cause of the failed bearing.

Sincere thanks for all the help!

Chris
