Title: Trailer Brakes and Bearings
Post by 97FASTech on Mar 3rd, 2013 at 4:54pm
Going to replace trailer bearings this spring, and while have them apart replace kodiak disc pads.  Been a while since I worked with rotors, races and seals, but have bought a bearing install tool kit.  Only thing that worries me is the getting old races out.  Should I try a center punch, screwdriver or invest in a brass drift?  Also have a spreader to push caliper piston back in.  Also will be replacing all the brake hose with new.

Any tips will appreciated.   :)

screwdriver, chisel, or punch works great if you take your time.  I have never used anything else so I am not for sure if anything works better.  ;)
