Replacing Super A PTO bearings

My pto bearings are wore out and I'm replacing them. I've got it tore down pretty far but can't figure out how to remove the shaft to get to the two bearings. Which side should it be pressed out from?, do I need to remove the big gear first? If anyone has done this, please give me some advice.

You need a THREE jaw puller in the holes of the gear to remove it. Remove gear,and woodruff key and the shaft will press out toward the REAR. You can't press the shaft out without removing the key as it will hang up on the bearing.

Looks like your shaft is grooved also. Get a speedy sleeve for it.
 
I went to Harbor Freight and bought a 3 jaw puller and quickly stripped the threads on it, the gear didn't move at all. Any tips?
I guess I need to find an old USA made puller.

I finally got the pto gear off the shaft, I used an old gear puller made by OTC.
Question, I'm putting it back together and torquing the 7/16-20 bolt that holds the gear on the pto shaft, it's a dot head bolt. What torque is required for this bolt, and what grade are the dot head bolts?
