There are easy ways to get a ball bearing out, and there is an even easier way. Be gentle doing this, or you will damage the machined part of the hub the bearing is mounted in. I use a bronze flat faced drift, and tap the bearing through the other bearing. Tap the outer circumferance of the bearing that is to come out, first one side than the other. Go slow, and check the other side to see that it is coming straight out. Not cocked. The even easier way is to play a little heat around the outside of where the bearing is, and just push it out..,ARH
