Subject: steering bearing (Lenkkopflager)


Hi,
I have to change the steering bearing (Lenkkopflager). Now I am thinking
about using tapered roller bearing (Kegelrollenlager) e.g. from 
Louis, G"otz or Polo, instead of the original ball bearings. Did 
someone made some good or bad experiences with tapered roller bearings ?
I only heard that the tapered roller bearing from Hein Gericke is nearly 
impossible to mount. Is there a very special tip for changing the bearings ?
Ah yes I am driving a tank, this means a RD04 (with Motads) :)

Greetings,

ToM
