Can the thread apply enough force to push out a bearing this size? 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322)

I concur, last one I changed took just under 20 tons to get it out, I doubt the threads on that kit will apply that much force.. Hope it does for you though...  Pete

I'll find out when I get the new sleeve made up but I think it will. The bearing was moving out until it reached the lip of the sleeve and then it wouldn't go any further due the bearing not being small enough to fit into the sleeve.

I had the hub in a vice and was using a 2ft breakers bar to turn the nut.

Oh, and buy another tub of Celebrations, that ones empty....  Pete

Good tip, also there are kits with more pieces that could fit, but they will also be more expensive
A tip for those without a bearing press
When fitting the new bearing into the knuckle, the day before put the new bearing into the freezer and if possible heat up the knuckle with ie boiling water, you will be amazed at how easy it is to fit the bearing, standard practice at at sea ( On a huge variety of machinery) very often the bearings fit in by hand, let the knuckle cool / bearing warm up and bingo, you have a nice interference fit - Just check all sizes of components first

I can't put my bearing in the freezer for fear that my Mrs will come across it and end up cooking it!

Glad it worked OK...  Pete

That's probably as good if not better quality than the original kit parts We make push / pull parts at sea from steel pipe all the time.
Mark the part and keep it with the kit, you can then say the kit is for FFRR's if you sell it

Yes it is quality....better than what is supplied in the kit.

Before sinking the new bearings into the knuckle I am trying to find out if there is a certain way they need to be fitted......maybe to do with the ABS sensor? I have started a new thread to try and find out.

I have posted an answer to your bearing fitting question, sorry if it's long winded

ah thanks for the warning ill get a 100mm made before I embark on this

if you've got exact measurements of the sleeve and plate i wouldnt say no

cheers Its actually a sport

Not anymore, 4.4 TDV8 now

The overall height including lid is 75mm and the outside diameter is 115mm the important internal diameter is 100mm so that is can accommodate the bearing that is being pushed out.
