If anyone has ever tried to seat a bearing race in a hub without the proper tools here is a tip that worked for me. Grind down the edges of your old races and use them to push the new races in (with a hammer). Grinding down the old races some allow you to remove them after seating the new ones. I normally use a large socket for this but I could not find it this time. Hope this helps someone.
