Does anyone know how to replace the drum bearings on a hotpoint aquarius wm?

Does anyone know how the drum bearings go back into a hotpoint aquarius 1100 wm63p. I managed to remove them ok but I am having some difficulty getting the new ones back in.
In which order do they go back in? where does the seal go? when I put them in and then pushed the drum support back in I didnt have enough thread passing through the rear of the outer drum. Can anyone help????????
Cheers,
Paddy

If you haven't sorted this out yet, the small bearing goes at the rear of the drum immediately behind the large drive wheel. The large bearing is inserted from inside the drum, either way round. It's a s*d to get in.Use the old bearing as a drift but be careful you don't get the old bearing stuck when you do so. I used a combination of a bit of wood, the old bearing and a couple of large sockets to drift mine in. Once you've got this in, then the seal goes in last. This is fairly easy to get in but be careful you don't ruin the rubber seal around it. A blob of vaseline helps as a lubricant. Make sure you have the thing the right way round and make sure it's square onto the hole when you're drifting it in. Best of luck!!
