Default Will a 75mm wheel bearing fit in the 82mm housing?

So, i am posting this for my friend Kyle (pyropenguin)...and the question is in the subject heading...

his steering knuckle/bearing carrier (whatever you want to call it) was bent so he ordered another one from a dissmantler...well, we ended up finding out the hard way that while the arms were the same the bearings were different sizes....

so the question is, can you simply take them both to a machine shop and have the 75mm bearing popped out of the bent knucle and pressed into the good one?

any and all input will be greatly appreciated!
