cipx2 Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Was that one of your teeth or Pikey's? It would help to say which bearings are you talking about. The ones on driveway gate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anderzander Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Are they blind bearings? taper? radial? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_d Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 If I were to assume you mean a bearing inner race stuck on a shaft then put a diagonal cut in it with an angle grinder then drive a chisel into the cut. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonr Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Are you doing it without a puller because you don't have one - or because there is no access? You can sometimes exert enough force by hammering a chisel in behind the bearing. Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike4444244 Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 go and buy a puller, they aren't too expensive! Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jil6939 Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Running a bead of weld around the bearing sleeve works very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roguevogue Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 If you don't want the bearing then grind through the shell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
