The wheel bearing is integrated with the brake rotor, right?

So, if I buy new brake rotors, will I get bearings aready in them or will I have to get bearings seperately, pack the grease myself, and press them in myself?

I don't hve a bearing press, I don't think a hammer or teh bottom of my shoe counts either.

P.O.S. Racing

Normally don’t get bearings with new rotors.

You’ll probably need to press in the inter and outer bearing races on the new rotors, they are the only item pressed into the rotor. You’ll need to pack the bearings with grease.

And don’t forget the dust seals!

Wish I had my Haynes manual handy so I could provide more technical info.

I have both the Haynes and Factory book. I can see how they go together, I was just wondering if they were sold together as some calipers are sold with pads.

Bearings are sold separately, pardners. There's very little pressing involved. Tighten the axle nut until you feel drag when you spin the rotor, then back off a bit.

If you buy new bearings, they come with new races so you just have to install those instead of hitting your old ones out of the old rotors.
