TO-30 rear axle bearing retainer

Ok, so I have the axles out of the fergy and got the shrunk on collars off (easy part). Now I haven't found anybody in my area (fairly modern, suburban area) that has a press that can press the bearing retainer off. I really don't want to destroy the bearings as they are $50+ each to replace. Any redneck ideas on getting them off? You think a chain between 4 studs and a hydraulic jack pushing on the end of the axle would be enough to pull it off? Or do I just expand my reach to ag country and pray they have a press to get it off?

Thanks.
 
Ferguson offered a tool to pull the bearing off. I have seen some made with some all thread. Seems like there was a picture of one that somebody made on here not to long ago. The collar is the hard part, the bearing will come off fairly easy with the right puller.
 
I took mine to a local machine shop and they pressed the old ones off and new ones on. Don"t forget to replace your outer seals at the same time.
