As above, iv tried fitting new hubs but it wont easily slide fully onto the stub axle and im thinking a drift would pop out the bearing sleves ?

Any tips in fitting them?

Cheers

It wont go in enough for the nut to go on and push it as i thought about doing that, i have the correct hub as the back washer thing fits perfectly.

Stick them in the oven for ten mins then slide them into place. Thumbs up that's what I did when I built my new beam.
*edit* they're an interference fit do they're not going to just slide on, a bit of heat expands them a little allowing them to slide straight on.

you need to use a tube drift.

I used a bit of roll cage, but any strong tube will do that fits over the stub axle.

It then just taps into place.

Ok thanks Chris, i have some spare tube, i was just worried it may pop through the other side, your confimation means ill use that method. The car and beam is off the road a mile away from my oven, so would be pointless doing it that way as it will be cooler by the time i get to the car.

Cheers fellas.
