Alrighty well I went to do a rear wheel bearing replacement on my ford contour. Well Its been bad for quite some time now (maybe 6 months but I do not drive it often) I was to lazy and should of done it sooner. It was hard to get the old bearing off but when I tried to put the new on one it got stuck. So I'm guessing the axel got warped? Is there anyway I can get a new bearing in? Can I just put a piece of wood on it and hammer it in? I really don't want to put any money into this car if I don't have to. Thanks for any help!
