bearing press
I met a guy at Auto Zone today who's selling a bearing press for $150.
Apparently, it's pretty old and very hefty.
Most of you guys have a good idea of my level of expertise - would this
be a smart purchase, if only to have around for later when I learn what
I'm doing?
A side note, the ZJ definitely needs some bearing work on the front
passenger side.

Re: bearing press
No. Take your ZJ hub assembly to someone who knows what they are doing.

Re: bearing press
I'll definitely take the ZJ somewhere - I wouldn't attempt anything like
that on a car that any of my loved ones actually drive.
I guess I'll just save my money for a plasma cutter or something - my
brother has too many limbs.

Re: bearing press
all the later models use a sealed hub assembly that is replaced as a
unit, run around $125 or so for a new unit. Rebuilding can be done but
the bearings are non standard, fairly expensive, takes a 30 ton press,
60 ton press desireable.
I would skip the press unless you do a lot of this kind of work. If all
you do is keep a couple vehicles running, just head for the auto parts
place or shop and have them do it. $150 is fairly steep for a used press
unless it is really big or really good condition. Import special 12 ton
presses go for $120 on sale at www.harborfreight.com and many other
outlets.
