IMG_5504.JPGIMG_5503 (2).JPGIMG_5502.JPGI have an 04 cougar and have been installing the dexter wet bolt with rubber suspension system. It is going smoothly and I believe this will be a great addition to my trailer. I decided to replace the wheel bearings since I had the wheels off and trailer jacked up. Just ordered some bearings from basscat as the ones I found locally will not match up. Anyway, I am looking for advice on the proceedure for removing (and replacing) the break assembly off the back hubs so I can replace the bearings. Also, I did remove the races from the front hub and now I see that is going to be a little difficult getting the new races back in, especially on the back side. After looking at the races I removed, they looked to be in great shape. I was just wondering if I really needed to remove the races. What am I looking for to indicate whether or not the need to be replaced?
Thank you for any advice.
