Since I have to do the same job, I wander how to get the new one in. Heating up the stud could be an option, but will be difficult to do. Would a big hammer do the trick?
Kind regards, Henk

New cup is in place. Heated the axle with a strong paint fohn. Had to help it a bit with a rubber hammer and the last bit with a rod and hammer.
