  • Bearing Block Glue?!?!?

    Hi All,

    What do you use to secure the bearings into the blocks? I heated the blocks from my x50 '09 to remove the worn bearings but they were held in with some kind of glue as oppose to the 'fit' of the block.

    Thanks

        Green loctite for me. Can't remember the product number but will find it later if you need to know. Don't need very much of it either.

          Shoe goo, as suggested by Finless. Got mine from the US, ebay if I recall.

            Green bearing locker for me.
            RT38 RiteLok, or the green stuff that comes with Align kits, which I think is R48?

            Cheers,

                zap a dab a goo is the same, tend to use green locktite as you can heat old bearing and it comes out easier than trying to remove goo.
