Salutations from Japan - this, I believe, is the first time that I've posted on the VOC Forum.
I want to remove the bearing races from the hubs of my '54 Shadow. I have heard that running a bead of weld around the race will heat the hub sufficiently enabling the old race to drop out and the new one to be dropped in before the hub cools and the clearance closes. Is there anyone out there who has performed this task who can give me a few pointers? Is it really that easy?
