Congrats Crowz. The end result makes the bruising and sore muscles almost completely worth it.

Now, when the test drive goes badly... and you hear that poor bearing still making noise... LOL that's not good times. My brother in law had that happen to him on his 330ci because he had tapped the bearing in improperly and damaged it. HAHA, I still remember that string of expletives... very reminiscent of Chevy Chase near the end of National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation.
