you dont need a press.. just a mallet and something solid to hit it with. just go to a machine shop and ask them to smack it out for you , and hten smack the new ones in. place i took it to looked at me funny and did it for free. pretty easy job.

I know its easy.

smacking bearings without a proper "drift" isn't a good idea.

Haha, turns out the S14 front bearings are not replaceable. Instead of pulling my hair out for an hour down in the cold garage, I could have just read Russ's multiple posts about the subject.

[SEARCH] n00b! There, I said it.

So, how bout that Laker game...
