I've done it on my 81 TR8 but I have a sneaking suspicion your talking
about TR2/3/4 cars.

Subject: Solid axle TRs - Rear wheel bearing replacement


    Has anyone on the list successfully inspected, repacked and/or replaced
the rear wheel bearings on solid axle Triumphs?  All my manuals seem to put
this task beyond the capabilities of the home mechanic.  Either special
tools (Churchill M86 or S132.2) are required or it is necessary to remove
the brake drums and the axle shafts.
   Thanks.
