Neil,

Sorry, I'm on lunch at work so I didn't have time to look through the thread... you are putting one bearing in front and one in back (of the housing which is out front of the motor), correct? What type of fit are looking for on 1) the shaft and 2) in the housing. Press fit I'm assuming, but roughly how much force?

I'm assuming this will cause some pre-load on the bearings... and with more interference on the fit, the more preload on the bearing.

Have a good holiday... anything I should not miss up in Newcastle? I'll be there for a couple weeks...
