Maybe the Nitro axles aren't quite right. The spec only needs to be off a little to make a huge difference. My guess is the diameter of the shaft where the bearing rides is off by a few thousands. The bearings do fit fairly tight onto the OEM axles, but my 20 ton press didn't load up hardly at all pressing the bearings on.
Do you have a link to those Nitro axles? I'm guessing the reason for the upgrade is they are considered stronger than OEM?
