We recommended using a hydraulic press rather than a vice or bearing installation tool to eliminate misalignment and galling. We have integrated bevels to ease installation, which can also be used to provide additional mechanical retention of the housing in the arm, if desired.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe can offer an installation service should you not have access to the tools to carry this out.
