Thank you! glad you liked it.

Thank you!

Tack! Va roligt, hoppas det går bra!

@@ifixmycarmyself2502 tack det gick jättebra har nu konverterat till kapslade lager, dock la jag mina låsringar på spisplatta innan jag satte dit dem det gick mycket enklare då samt jag pressade på mina lager.

I then heated the locking ring (collar) to 500F and it slid on

Thank you for this comment. For sure a good method. At my place it would come to the negotiation wether the freezer is available as garage equipmen. But of course, over night could be a solutio 😁

Yes, was hoping so, especially fir those who has not access to a press. The pipe is 42mm internal dismeter, 48 mm external diameter and almost 800 mm long. Not sure about measure in inches :)

1 1/4 “ id 1 1/2 “od , 31 1/2 “ length. google is your friend lol. Thank you very much . i’ve been looking for a way to avoid buying a floor press. This is very helpful!

@@340dave6 I worked as a mechanic some 30 years ago and belive it or not this was a method some of the guys used although there was a press and tools there. An oxy/acetylene is of course more effective than propane torch but i wanted to do it in the most simple way i could.

Luckily this is a 1970 axle :) just joking. When we deal with old stuff that is stuck or rusted, which they never had to do when they wrote the service manual, we usually have to go beyond the manual. In general I agree with the manual but as long as we heat things and are careful to not overheat things, change color, turning blue or purple, affecting hardening or tempering we should be on the safe side. I have seen plenty of other metods like drilling or using an angle grinder leaving nasty damages in the axle wich are perhaps even worse. In this particular video I wanted to show how to remove the collar in one piece without having access to drill or angle grinder. The same with the bearing roller basket. The struggle removing the bearing that way makes it possible to use the bearing rings for other jobs in the press or whenever they could come handy :) I'm awere that there is a special tool for just about everything you can do on a car but In the video serie Ifixmycarmyself I always try to show how we can fix things without half a million $ wort of tools, just like the average garage guy situation and perhaps does'n even have a sevice manual. That is the basic principle for the wole channel. Thank you for your comment!

The amount of heat he is putting into the bearing race, with what appears to be a propane torch, will not harm the axle. The FSM is likely referring to oxy-acetylene, which does create enough heat to harm metallurgy.

Agree, but scope of this, and some other of my videos, is to show it can be done with a minimum of simple tools.:)

Haha, don’t worry, these particular bearings are ball bearing and the bearing retainer slides over the bearing and a locking ring fits in a groove on the outer bearing ring and will keep the bearing and retainer in place. But if it was a conical bearing I would for sure share your concern :)

cut with what? i dont have a cut just a hammer and chisel

@@Titan-dm2mo in the past I have used a cutting torch . Just enough to blast a groove without penetrating into the shaft. Sounds difficult but easier than you think. I have used cutting discs and carbide burrs. The race is so hard that all you need is a start and it will fracture very easily and slide off.
