We use locktite when putting new bearing on the LFR.

Locktite works from what I hear, but a couple of quick twists with a pair of channel locks and a hard slap to knock the bearing on is free! The best bet is to go with the ir5050 series LFR though, they will run closer to 1million more often than not. I still scuff the shaft out of habit.

Initially we were using the loctite as well back with the 8500's, but we have switched to peening the shafts with a punch, 3 times around the circumference, and using a 12mm socket as a drift to drive the bearings on. Works great!
That clicking sound, I have heard it to, II believe is the gears meshing up front as you compress the works down with the screws. I spin the gear set to "mesh" the gears as I tighten the front screw.
