How in the world are you talking about being lazy or not having the press now? I mean I could have understood it if this was the first time you had a bad bearing on this vehicle.
Here is a question to the all of BITOG. How would *you* be able to verify that the guy who replaced the wheel bearing did it right afterwards? Is the answer do it yourself "always watch the mechanic like a hawk"? Doesn't that also imply you already know exactly how the work has to be done?
You're missing a lot. It's all in the original post. The axle nut backed off the axle and ruined all the mentioned parts. The bearing didn't fail because the bearing was bad, the bearing failed the second time because the axle nut wasn't secured properly and caused the axle to bang back and forth in the bearing assembly.
