Final drive bearing race removal
I am wondering what tricks you folks have come up with for removing the outer race on the upper final drive bearing. I have the one out of the final drive housing. I am just looking for suggestions on the other one before I try it myself. We were thinking heating the outside and seeing if it will drop out.
Here's a picture for reference.
Thanks!

bearing removal
You can run a hot bead around the inside with an arc welder and the bearing will fall out--no fuss no muss.

Welder works great, but I have a internal bearing puller as well.
