Go up to the FAQ sticky at the top. Go to the thread that has the downloadable Helms manuals. Download the manual. It has good pictures and even gives you a listing of the tools needed.

Im about the biggest DIY guy i know. BUT, i'd suggest just taking your knuckles off and taking them and the bearing to a machine shop. The place near me charges $20 a side. For $20 and 10 minutes, i had my hub done. You can do it with a slide hammer yourself, but its just not worth the time.

Since then, i've bought my own press. Also indespensible to have for bushings. It took me all of 5 minutes each LCA to press the new bushings in today. Now taking the old 16 year old bushings out, thats another story. Took me about an hour each LCA
