I found this nearby place that replaces wheel bearings.  They have a 40 ton press.  It's a combined auto/truck parts and repair place.

I talked to the technician about the job.  He was totally aware of all the issues you guys have brought up earlier.

My only concern now is this 40 ton press.

I have heard that only a 5 ton press is needed to press in the bearings.

Can't he hurt the little knuckle with this monster press?

I didn't drop the knuckles off yet.  He's asking $35 per knuckle (I bring in the knuckles and supply the bearings.)
