Just make a few more posts, and you won't be a F.N.G. After 50 posts it will change.[/quote]

Hmm.. What does F.N.G mean? I might have to make many more posts to qualify for "rotor humper". [/quote]

nothing says welcome to nopistons better than putting F.N.G below an avatar of a new member. (as you can tell from the content of this post, I am just trying to cross 50)

Well I bought a couple of new bearings for my rotors to be on the safe side. I also picked up a new corner seal. They should be here pretty soon, thank you Mazdatrix :bigok:

isamu,

do you need the mazda bearing puller/installer for it or will any machine shop press them in without it?

I don't know. I was thinking you did not need anything special but I could be wrong. Maybe 13Bace better enlighten us. In the manual it just says to use a large vice or press.

You can't go wrong following the manual. a press will work fine, but you have to set it up so that you don't damage the rotor.

Well I replaced the bearings in my rotors a couple of weeks ago. After I looked around a bit more I noticed similar wear on one of the stationary gear bearings, so I replaced those as well. The bearings were actually pretty cheap, and I am glad I changed them
