It was mentioned that you might use the old race to drive in the new one. I use the old bearing to drive in the new race. Get the race started straight, then place the old bearing in the race. Use a socket that will set on the inner race of the bearing and hammer it home.
Also use a brass rod to drive the race home by hitting on the outside edge of the race. Brass is soft and wont nick the edge of the race. Gotta be careful and keep it straight.
Which ever one is easier.
