[A/S] Question: Replacing bearing races

["Christopher45103" <blickcd@xxxxxxx>]

Last year I repacked my wheel bearings and noticed that some of the 
bearing assemblies looked a little sloppy, although none of the rollers 
were in danger of falling out.

I plan to replace all the bearings later this year, but would like to 
know the easiest way to remove and install new races in the brake drums 
myself.

I've replaced races that were pressed into a brake rotor a long time 
ago.  At that time I used a punch to carefully tap them out without 
damaging the bore of the rotor and then beat the new ones into place 
with a hammer and a block of solid maple that I had whittled down to 
the proper size.  That was a real hassle and I wanted to know if there 
is an easier way such as a hand cranked tool similar to a gear puller, 
and I'd even consider buying a small hydraulic press that uses a bottle 
jack.
