Hey guys,
Im after a set of rear Wheel bearings for my WT. I believe Weaves sells them? Also is it a DIY job or am I best to get a mech to do it. Would anybody in Vic with the tools want to do it for some brewskies?

I can sort you out with rear wheel bearings, just restocked yesterday.
the job is very simple. the tools i use are a mallet, a cold chisel, a grinder and a press.
its a very simple job. and if someone who has already done it before is willing to lend a hand, that just makes it extremely easy.
just remember, backing plate goes on before you press the bearings on.

if you don't have access to a press a lenth of pipe works excellent. changed mine just the other work with the pipe cos it was going to take longer to set up the press.
