Pressing 726 wheels back on

Not a lost cause. We pulled all the wheels and gear off of a 671 turbine, replaced all the bearings and put everything back together. Didn't use any wheel cups, but we did have an arbor press and some calipers. 

Here's an old trick... place the driver in the oven at 450 for 20 minutes.  Place the axle in the freezer for an hour or so.  Remove both and quickly assemble tapping lightly as needed.  No need for a press.

OK, I get the heat/cool shrink fit thing. How would one be certain the drivers are quartered and perpendicular to the axle correctly?

Now that the drivers are out I can feel where the axle spline engages the hole in the wheel at the right 90 degree orientation. Is this all that is need as far quartering goes?

As long as you have the wheels 90 degrees apart, it should work fine.

The 1/2 moons on the drivers might help a bit   Keep them lined up as best as possible when pressing the wheels back on.

Put the wheels on one end of the axles. Install those in the frame and install the side rod. Install a wheel on the other side getting the quartering as close as possible. Then use the other side rod to get the proper orination correct. Getting the side rods to fit is more important than quartering. Use something parallel like a vise, drill press, or lathe to press the wheels back on. If the wheels do not press on thight there are Locktite products that will fix that. 

Using the side rods! Brilliant! Thank you.  I will try the lathe method.
