[Public-List] Cutlas bearing help please ~ PS

[Elaine & Brian Timmins]

In my humble opinion:
If you can grab the inside portion of the tube and keep it from spinning any 
further, the rest of the job is easy. Either way, the recaulking/bedding 
might be or might not be required. Might as well try to unscrew the housing. 
When I did mine, it unscrewed fairly easily.
Regards,
Brian
