Timken ( wheel bearings etc.) Help Videos

I am about to repack my front wheel bearings and was looking into the Timken website. Pretty interesting. They have a page of videos with good information. I thought I would share that page with those who are DIY's, or those who just want to know. Enjoy.

One of the first things they taught in shop class in 9th grade (1957) was how to pack a wheel bearing by hand.
Now I've got "floaters" so I don't get to do it anymore.
Too bad..........

Ah the feeling of grease squishing in the palm of your hands....

Almost as good as mud squishing between your toes in the swimming hole

I really like the looks of the red grease.

Then yelled at you for spinning the dry bearings up to jet engine takeoff speed with an air nozzle.
