If the old bearings are ok they can be put in the new rotors. I think new bearing/race sets are no more than $30 a side. An auto machine shop can press in/out the races. They might also pack the grease and install the seal. I have done this on the driveway myself using screwdrivers drifts and hammer. One time the place I bought the parts insalled the races and packed the bearings for no extra charge. Just assembly after that. good luck- Bob |
