I picked up a Timken 510050 tonight at autozone. Looks to be a very high quality bearing. I was a bit skeptical before purchasing it, but it looks really nice.

It has NSK engraved on the rubber seal side just for reference. On the other side it has 455WD07 something engraved as well which basically matches what was said about the OEM supplier and manufacturer part number.

For those who used this, did you have to use a press, or were you able to somehow install it without one?

I'm guessing I'll need it pressed, but I've been told otherwise....I'm not convinced.

The Timken bearings should be some of the best. Also they are most likely made at the Timken roller bearing plant in Ohio. The other brands may be made it China which i wouldnt trust as much.

After waiting about a week for an opportunity to take it to a shop with a press, I installed mine with a BFH and a couple of beers.

Others may or may not be able to do the same.
