Bummer.
I recall it all went well, no issues pressing it in or anything - the bearing was *not* OEM though as he needed it done that day to go on a trip and I actually got the bearing from Napa/Car Quest or someone local (I will have to look it up)
Sucks.
Now I have to do it over. I have a couple bearing kits back in stock though -OEM from the stealer - and i have done so many now they only take me about an hour or less start to finish. Sucks I have to eat some time & $$ though.
Just needed to bitch a little. ;-P

Pulled out completely and done on a press.
It's more knowing the tools and tricks and having a clean set-up to do it.
After you do a few it becomes really easy.
