It has Japanese bearings and I think looks like good value.

Excellent thread from start to finish, this is a job I will have to do in the near future and as I only get home for a few weeks at a time would like to have everything ready to go to complete the job in a day if I can. I will get one of those Kits mentioned above and look for the bearing and seal tools
I am looking now, I see the mob you got your Bearing and Seal set off claims one left, I am having a look for one in NZ to save the shipping hassle. I have asked a mate in TSV to buy me the bearing set and bring it ti NZ when they come next month. I will be away till Dec and want everything ready to go when I get there.
When doing the swivel bearings how do you determine the preload on the bearings?
I see there are various shims available to adjust it if it is tight but I am curious how you determine the right setting.
Fantastic write up and pictures, MR. Thank you for putting in such a great effort.
Great post Daz! This is a job I need to do.
