Was you old inner bearing complete when you stripped it apart?

Soooooo.....did you get hold of @Oldseadog to get the swivels done for the MOT? Is this work part of that, cos you have to strip the Hubs off to do the swivel seals too....

Bugger... thanks guys, it was getting dark and I didn't even think of that! Idiot that I am!
It won't budge, is it a case of grinding it of.?!

I've been in hospital for my pre surgery... I'm having a nightmare Yeah I end up doing it myself, once I was down I was fine... the job itself was pretty straightforward, apart from not realising the inner part of the bearing remained in the stub axel

Ideally not, you don't want to damage the stub axle where the new bearing will run.....dremel if possible and very careful.
Do you have a puller you can use to try and pull it off squarely?

Also, best read through the previous post you put on asking for help!
Still not sure if he wants them doing!
All I've been told in a PMis that he's been in hospital for a pre-op.

It's a weird one. I can't understand why he would start a second thread without checking the first one!
You deserve a medal.
Forget medals!
As far as I was concerned it was someone who needed help doing a couple of jobs for an MoT, and I have friends who run an apprentice training school for motor mechanics.
They were good enough to offer to do the works as training exercises at minimal cost.
In my very humble opinion, good manners cost nothing, so all it would have taken was a quick phone call to tell me to feck off ... and even that didn't happen!
Guess who is more than slightly ****ed off with Landyfox!!

I'm not surprised you feel like that, it's a very natural reaction. What you arranged initially and how you have dealt with the situation since has been amazing and I'm sure will be massively admired by everyone who has read it. I won't forget the medal, because you do deserve one, figuratively speaking.
