I use a 3 lb hammer and a piece of 5/8th drill rod about 16 inchs long to knock the old races out(you catch the inside edge of the old race with the drill rod and tap firmly at different pionts around the race, then use the old races and hammer to tap the new races in after I have cleaned the hub of all the old grease.Then it a matter putting some wheel bearing grease in the hub between the bearings( I think they call for 2 oz not sure) ,pack grease in the new bearings,tapping in the new rear seal after instaling rear bearing . putting hub on spindle , put front bearing in ,put thrust washer and locking nut on . I tighten the locking nut till it's hard to turn then back it off a third of a turn ,put grease in cap and put cap on. If you have a dial indicater and a manual showing it's use you can set to factory specs instead of the way I decribed.don't forget to lock the locking nut with allen wrench.......
