HUBS: Does heating in the kitchen oven ruin the oven and future meals?
I may be replacing my front wheel bearings. Instructions on Clark's Garage say to heat the hubs to 250*F in an oven for .5 hrs minimum. Will the women of the household hate me for doing so? Adverse effects on the oven/kitchen?
My guess is "probably so," but it can't hurt to ask, right.

yah. that's what I thought Between posting this thread and right now, I just remembered a good friend is re-doing his kitchen and has an extra working oven, so I'm set.

They wont hate you as bad as washing your coolant reservoir in the kitchen sink and using their dish towels to dry it. Either way, I wouldn't recommend it. Don't use your Mom's or your Wife's, if you know what's good for you.

I had a buddy of mine clean all his engine parts in the dish washer. His wife could not figure out for the longest time why the dishes kept coming out with grease on them.
To say she was a little upset when she found out why would be a major understatement.

What a novel concept! Necessity is the Mother of all Invention.
True, that's what Laundry sinks are for... but, have her spot the parts next to the thawing dinner in the sink and let's see if her tune changes a little! Rockman, your Wednesday is just getting underway, no?

I heated my hubs in the oven when I replaced the wheel bearings. The races literally dropped right into the hub but I gave them a few wacks with the hammer anyways. I froze the bearings over-night. Just make sure the hubs are super clean, not even a speck of dirt anywhere. I didn't have any funny smells or bad tasting food.

I just did mine last Thursday. Baked the hub for 1 hr and cooked a Turkey on New Years eve. They didn't even notice.
I did leave the oven door open all day when I was done with the hubs.
