Hey guys

I ordered a needle bearing kit from Woody, but did not get any instructions on the box.......I've searched around but didn't find any detailed pics of what the installation looks like once installed.

Being more of a visual person, figured I'll ask if anyone here has a few pics/detailed installation to share???

That would be nice.
I have one on the shelf waiting for the day I finally
get all of my front end parts together.

I second that. Clay does it again. A valuable resource.
