Am I alone or are some of you thinking "been there, done that." So, now everything is all cleaned up and ready to assemble but I need to know how many bearings in total I should have and how many go in the outer race and how many into the inner race.

Seems like I do something like this at least twice a year. When will I learn?

Thanks in advance to anyone with info,
