Anyone ever have to replace the inner bearing on a Farmall with the narrow front end.
I raised the tractor up last night to put on new rims and tires and found the inside bearing has a lot of slop in it.
The manual says to grease it with the bearing on the tractor and only remove it if you have to.
Ok...looks like I have to, but how do you get a puller in there? I hate to heat the bearing race and I for sure do not want to try and bust it off. I do not want to ruin the spindle.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

IaGary-- I think that the hub came off o. k. , but the inside cone & seal are on the spindle yet. A thick-bladed cold chisel applied between the cone & flange on the spindle sometimes works.

Yea they do have a tendency to Stick on the spindel and the way i get them off is to use my one long stiff bladed putty knife and drive it in behind on two sides then move to a thin long chisel or you can use a bearing spliter and a puller and if it comes apart well then it is shot and ya need a new bearing anyway. Also the inside bearing is always the first to go as it is the one that catches all the dirt and dust getting past the seals and it gets ground down , SOOOooo while you are fixen the one ya just might as well do both and repalce all bearings and seals and repack , now you can cheat and drill and tap behind the spokes down into the middel of the cavity bewteen the inner and outer and install a grease fitting and keep them flushed . Stop and thing about it of what that ft. end has been put thru in her life time down thru that creek , mud holes and barnyard slop and all the dust and dirt.

I may be missing something here but if you take the hub off you can drive the old bearing out from the other side with a long punch. Good Luck.

It's really loose. Pretty sure it's gone Allan.

Bill,

I can't see your tractor, but if that bearing isn't adjusted and "pre-loaded" it is gonna appear "sloppy".
