Great video!!! Thanks
You’re more than welcome. Glad you like it! Thanks for letting me know!! 🙂
Really liked your video. Thanks for posting it!
Thanks! You’re very welcome 🙂
I have found if you can work “clean” pick it up and put it in a vice, lightly turn it up and tada!.
You’re right. I’ve used the vise before…works great! An arbor press would be the ticket! 🙂
Good video. I use the dollup/palm method myself. The way I figure it is your going to get covered in grease anyway so why not just pack them by hand it really doesn’t take any extra time Yes the gloves are a must.. Thanks for sharing
Thanks! The packer was a gift many years ago when I was doing a lot of car work. I’ve used it more than I though I would, but I don’t know that I would have bought one since the palm method is just as quick and easy. 🙂
Thanks for the comments!
Thanks! I bought my handy packer 10 years ago and never used it and had no clue how to.great video!! I’m headed to garage right now
You’re certainly welcome! If you have a bench vise you can squeeze it in it makes it even easier. 🙂
It took me a bit when I got mine to figure out which way the bearing went….no instruction with it. LOL I’ve had mine at least that long, as well.
Thanks!
“Fat & early fifties man…. that’s a winning combination” Very funny dude, thanks for the upload, bearings are the bomb!
LOL! I’m pretty sure I said “Fat and Nearly fifty”…..at least I hope so…I’m still just 49. But, I’m not to bright….I’d have to go back and listen again to be sure. 🙂
You’re more than welcome! Thanks for watching!!
Yes you did, my bad. You need a gym, i need an otologist xD
I’m in shape!! Round is a shape!! LOL 🙂
