Ok guys need some help trying to pop out the inner bearing on an OS 21 and the thing just doesn't wanna come out I know there has to be a trick to doing this I just need to know what it is.....Thanks

HEAT THE CACE TO 275* F FOR 20 MINUTES! USE A RAG OR PAPER TOWLS TO HOLD THE CASE & RAP THE BACK OF THE CASE ON A BLOCK OF WOOD & THE REAR BEARING SHOULD COME OUT!! Greg Settle

if it hasn't already fallen out by itself . same to install, heat & push cold bearing in. a deepwell socket that hits the outer race ONLY works well. when installing any new bearing, the trick is to not transfer the pushing force across the balls. it will flat spot them, & will cause failure.

fell right out thanks i've heard of that trick before but didn't know what to cook it at or how long

I hate that when a pushing force is transfered accross the balls LOL !
