Hey- yep sorry. An Eriba Puck is a small (10 ft.) aluminum camper with a fiberglass roof built in Germany beginning in 1958. They still build them, but they have gotten bulkier and more elaborate, especially in the last couple decades. Thanks for the reply, the shop ma aged to get the bearing off by combining torch and grinder. The spindle came out clean and everything went back together. I still can't get a good seal on the back of the hub- it has an odd double washer on back with a spring clip instead of the standard US type seal and I still lost a good bit of grease but it is not getting hot and I checked again and still plenty in there. The shop used pressed in bearings (og ones were as well) but I think these ones are thicker and cover a groove the spring clip is supposed to snap into. There are some pics on this photobucket page: http://s162.photobucket.com/albums/t249/ommuel/ thanks- ollie Oliver Mueller-Heubach groundhogging@mac.com |
