Wheel bearing removal query

Just wanted to double check that the bearing gets pressed out away from the threaded end i.e. away from this side.

Also , is there a maintenance manual that explains this more in depth maintenance ?

Hi

Download the 57 - 64 Workshop manual from the archive, pretty sure your wheel bearings are the same - see page 65.

Make sure you check the orientation of the oil seal cup washer on the Speedo side. See
