I decided to make some cuts in the Bearing and split it off.
Looking on the Internet via Google, I found all sorts of suggestions.
Put several welds on it with an electric Stick welder - makes it expand locally and
it will pop off with a light tap.
If not, you have the weld blob to grab onto with the Puller....(!)
Cut it with a Moto-Tool in two places and hit it with a chisel.
Bash the Bearing hard with a Hammer and it will deform enough to let go.
Made two grooves about 1/4 inch apart then I
removed a portion of the R Bearing Race,
heated it up with a blowtorch, banged it with a Hammer, left it under pull tension overnight
and this morning it finally started to move !
It must have become hot where it started to slide because I smelled hot oil when
I was turning the wrench !
I had damaged the Countershaft end very slightly with the Moto-Tool cutter,
but this should not bother anything...
I hope getting the new one
on won't be such a bugger as
getting it off was !
More to come....
