Ok !!! You said the magic phrase " You are going to hit it hard and you are going to hit it often " You are awesome thanks!

[@TheFishingEducator]

You bet!

[@MrSfbsnyder]

Can't believe I'm watching this...... Should have stopped when I saw the sandals

[@TheFishingEducator]

Thanks for watching!

[@lawdog2906]

watched 2 seconds just as a refresher. You can always tell a persons skill level by using the incorrect tool for the job. Ive never used a breaker bar or ratchet as a punch......

[@TheFishingEducator]

sometimes you have to use what you have. :)

[@annpeerkat2020]

I don't think I'll be lending him any of my tools!

[@markgarry7866]

Use a 1/2 drive 6" extension for a punch. Nice job, but a racer is a type of snake, or a fast driver....I believe they are called a race, as in a bearing race.

[@AGirlNamedCharlie]

Where's your how-to "law dog" 🙄

[@AGirlNamedCharlie]

​@@markgarry7866because you're so qualified in snakes 🙄
I guess the bearing is the raceR here, since it's going round and round inside the race...

[@plmn93]

First time changing bearings. I had the right idea, just wasn't using enough force because I didn't want to damage anything. Big punch and hammer instead of a mallet did the trick. Thanks for the video.

[@TheFishingEducator]

Great tip! Thanks for watching!

[@gordonturner2941]

Invest in some drifts. Preferably brass ones so u can use them to reinstall the race without damaging them.

[@TheFishingEducator]

Thanks! Do have a brand name that you’d recommend?

[@fi8215]

Good video- succinct and to the point. I do have to wonder though... why are all the people that know so much more about it watching videos on how to do it?

[@TheFishingEducator]

LOL! This is true!

[@twistedjigco.548]

Exactly 😂

[@williamgrissom9022]

Officially a "cup" in tapered roller bearings. It is generally a separate PN from the "cone" (w/ rollers). A few are packaged as a cup & cone set, like Timken SET1, SET2, ... (National A1, A2, A3, ...). You don't need to source bearings from an auto manufacturer, just search for the PN's. I found that when needing an internal bearing for a transmission, which would cost $65 as an auto part with 3 wk delay. Found it was the same PN's as used on many trailer axles so bought the priciest one at a local trailer supply for $6. I used to tap the cups out of a wheel hub with a blunt screwdriver, but a tool which keeps it perpendicular is best. In one transmission, they weren't nice enough to have rear slots to get a punch on the cup, so had to cut it out with a carbide end mill until it cracked. Insure you orient the new cup correctly before knocking in or you will be in deep.

Great information, thank you!

[@Hotrod_haji]

Dude this worked like a charm thank you so much!!!

[@TheFishingEducator]

Great to hear!

[@johnroemer5242]

Racer? What? It's a bearing race.

[@TheFishingEducator]

Thank you Mr. Helper. LOL!

[@delusion_904]

Racer 😂 says a lot while using a breaker bar 😂😂

[@martinpetersen6266]

thanks
was wandering if I could just leave em.. mine are really stuck.
but gonna give it another go with some hard metal since that seem to be ok

[@TheFishingEducator]

Hit em' hard til you cuss a bit. ;)

[@MrGrrtime]

Racer? There's no R on the end of the word.

[@TheFishingEducator]

The plural of race is racers.

[@wh0deany]

@@TheFishingEducator Negative, plural of race is races. Appreciate the video mate, even with the fun police in the comments! haha. Would have been good to mention that when inserting the new races that its best to use a bearing driver kit so as to not cause any damage to them, they're relatively cheap.

[@johndeerefarmer4483]

You need a brash punch NOT a steel breaker bar...........

[@TheFishingEducator]

What’s a “brash punch”????? Never heard of one of those.

[@johndeerefarmer4483]

Typo
Brass

[@sashimiturtle]

Its a race... not a racer.

[@TheFishingEducator]

ok, thanks!

[@dterr41958]

Please man come on!

[@Sdrake3819]

You knew what he meant...

[@Ryan-yo4dg]

It's actually both; racer and race

[@jamesrobertson9597]

@@Ryan-yo4dg No it's not. It's "race". It's a bearing race. If The Fishing Educator or you call these things "racers" around anybody who knows what a bearing is, they're going to laugh at you, and I don't like to see people get laughed at. So, you're welcome.

[@alandaters8547]

That is not concrete, those are bricks! Hammering metal against red brick will easily chip or crack a brick. Concrete would stand a better chance. Race or races, not "racers".

[@TheFishingEducator]

Thanks for watching.

[@praisethelord8750]

Damn bruh 💀

[@praisethelord8750]

What else?

[@jackdernorsek5310]

why do you call it a racer?

[@TheFishingEducator]

That is what I have heard them called. Not sure of the origin.

[@jamesrobertson9597]

@@TheFishingEducator It's just "race".

“Races”…
