Well,
I am trying to replace the drum bearings in an old Hotpoint.
I cannot get the old bearings out! I have been walloping them with a 4Kg sledge and they simply will not move!
If I hit them any harder I fear I will damage the plastic bearing housing/drum. Similarly I cannot use heat!
Is this job actually possible???
Or should I just give up now and just buy another machine (Something that all my Girls say I should do!)??
