Is there anywhere I can purchase a steering head ballrace extractor as I need to replace both top and bottom ballraces due to pitting. Can the M20 be converted to taper roller bearings?
many years ago I wished to replace the bearings on my BMW, they have a special tool for extraction which of course I didn't. however a tip given was to drill two very small holes through the bottom of the housings and punch them out filling the holes subsequently with grease, of course if you can obtain the correct tools this is the far beter way to go
as an aside when I fit these kinda bearings I smear the races with Wynns friction proofing then assemble with moly grease [can't spell the correct wording] 'tis obtainable if required in small quantities from car factors as it is the grease in Mini CV joints. kind regards
