Re: rear wheel bearing noisy there is a fair bit on it in the archives - sometimes just better to collapse the ring

Re: rear wheel bearing noisy Just done mine best to breakout the ring and buy a new one as the peening over stops them from being unscrewed without damage to the drum thread

Re: rear wheel bearing noisy I've never found removing the ring nuts back or front to be a problem with the correct tool from ecas. Trying to break them out before I had the tool caused problems hence why I decided to invest in the correct tool.
