Because you don't have a bearing press, your best bet to take off the bearings is to bring it to a shop and have them take it off. Once they're off, have the shop put on the new bearings and press everything back into the housing. If you know any cool shops they probably wont charge you, since it's a simple job for them. good luck...

Thats also in the grease/oil section.. you'll need some high temperature grease. since you dont want to drill into your housing, you can probably put a dap of grease in between the bearings before you press the shaft back into the housing.

You should do it, because once you put the bearings and shaft back in, if you do it after you run the risk of getting metal shavings into the bearings. The drill bit is a buck or two, the tap is under 5 bucks and the fittings are a few bucks. I am sure you have a drill or can borrow one, measure and drill right in the middle of the housing and add the grease fitting. It will prolong the life of the bearings.

No ordered them last night but just want an idea where to apply grease so when there here I can put them on

JAY_NYCE

oh... well I know you said you don't want a grease fitting and if you ever decide to put one on. DON'T do it with everything assembled.

The bearings already have grease inside of them. You can actually check right now. Grab a razor blade and pop the black seal off the bearing and look at how its made.

as far as applying new grease, you'll notice that you have two bearings on a single shaft. in between the bearings there is about a 1 inch gap. you can put some grease in there when its time to reassemble.

JAY_NYCE

These pics are to illustrate a sealed bearing and a unsealed bearing. Obviously you can remove the seal to check your bearings.

How was the bearings to put back in?? And There's a dyno in fallriver. There prices aren't bad if u wanted to try it. That's where I'm going. I haven't tried light pulley yet I been reading on it. That its not good with the s/c. You seem to have no probs tho??

Idk man had full pulley kits on every car I own no issues so until then I'm a keep em i bought this trd s/c used so no idea where its been etc. the bearings were easy made two pipes to bang them on even hardest part was that dam bolt!!! On the shaft but if I have to do this every yr I'm fine cheaper than a oil change $27 total
