Not to sure, I checked the crush tube length etc......... the new ones are tight also but they do turn by hand, Then I gave it a warm up with the heat gun and they are fine.
Maybe I was just over thinking it all

Yeah... I looked at mine one time and decided they were awful tight but maybe they were meant to be... still working fine many many kms later... so I dunno!!

I just changed my rear wheel bearings...pretty easy.
Reason for changing them, I noticed a small noise at a low speed and when cornering (first thought it might have been rear breaks, they were getting close to life)
No special tools where needed just a good hammer and bar of some sort to punch out the old bearings.
Just take pictures when removing parts...it can be easy to forget how it all goes together after you brake for beer...haha
