My 86 has about 160K on it and I wan't to put new hubs on it before I put it back on the road.Has anyone ever pressed new bearing in the hubs .That all they do when they rebuild them.Or who has the best deal on them?They all have a little play,and i would like to replace them all .But I don't wan't to pay $150 apiece.

I have never ever heard of anyone doing this successfully. If you are able to do it and get thousands of miles on them I'll be impressed.
