fast rebuild way

Has anyone used "Camo's" method of doing the front knuckle? and "Tin Benders" ? It seem like a great idea since you dont have to mess with the hub and other stuff.
I would like to try when I re-do my inner axle seal and switch them to HD marlins seals. :greengrin:

Id say that would easier to do on the trail, if i was doing it at home i would take the time and repack the wheel bearings, and clean it up a little :twocents:

It works fine, I watched Camo change a Birf out in less then twenty minutes at JV. I cannot do it because of arthritis in my hands and wrists. The whole unit is just to heavy for me.

Ive done it.  Works just fine.  If all you need to do is access the birf it is the best way I can think of.  Definately best for on the trail.  That way your wheel bearings stay clean.  It is a bit heavy though.
