NOTE: Inspect the bearings for signs of wear by
rotating the inner race and examine for
marring or cracks. Check to make sure the
race moves easily and is not sloppy. If the
bearing is tight and rotates smoothly, removal
is not necessary. If you feel any roughness or
cha ering or the bearing is sloppy, it should
be replaced.
