Default outer wheel bearings

Do the wheel bearings on a strange 12 bolt have to be pressed on?

I have non c-clip axles in my rear end. My wheel bearings are whining and they need to be replaced.

just make sure the backing plates are on the right way before pressing on the new bearing...

You need to make sure the "Wedding" ring comes with your bearings as the old ones will not be reusable once removed.
