Do I remember correctly that you had a link to an illustrated parts list for the 240 series? Volvo seems to have changed the wheel bearings it fitted at about the time the RB was built, so I want to make sure I order the right one. Alan

Thank you very much for the link, I'll see if I can track down the right part number and have one (or two) ready on the shelf. Alan

Happiness is: a hydraulic press
Quote:
I had a look at the job (on a YouTube) last week and decided a hydraulic bearing press would make life so much easier. I've been tapping in bearings with a large socket and a hammer for the past 40 years - sometimes they go in straight and easy, sometimes they don't - and I'd been really impressed with Luke's machine. I did some research and came up with this: ... it arrived in the mail yesterday, delivered to my house for a little under £90. I consider that a bargain after spending most of a day changing just one bush in a Parhard rod recently. I'm quite looking forward to changing that bearing next week. :-)

I may get time to change the bearing tomorrow, if not the end of the week. I'll post the usual report with some photos, it looks like an easy job (well, it should be with a press!). Alan

Wouldn't the hydraulics relaxing over time cause a problem with that idea Alan? Of course you could probably build a humungous cider press with a nice big ACME threaded lead-screw and tighten it daily to extract all the juice..... Hic!!
