Hi all
The front hub bearings on my BT7 were adjusted and re-shimed about 2000 miles ago by an AH specialist just after I bought the car. I presume that the bearings would have been repacked with grease at that time however whilst being MOT'd recently the tester suspected that the off side bearings might need repacking with grease.
I have never stripped down the front hubs on an Austin Healey but have decided to tackle this myself and and wonder if this is a fairly straight forward procedure. The workshop manual indicates that some special tools are required??
Anything to bear in mind or to prepare in advance for?
Thanks for your help
