Well, I finally got off my dead butt and started in on the B. When I removed the end cap, the ball bearings and retainer were all effed up. The last time I put it on I wrecked it! Nothing makes me madder when I screw something up without anyone elses help. Anyway, I need to remove the bearing part that is pressed into the Left end cap. It is really stuck in there. I have the end cap in the oven now at 250 degrees, maybe applying some ice to the bearing part will allow it to slip off? Any ideas? Thanks John L. By the way, the new part from John Deere is made in CHINA!

I always use a welder but rather a wire welder instead if stick. Get more accuracy on small part. Whe this thing cools down the outer race will fall out of housing. Be sure to remove/release govenor rod and position all these parts correctly before operating.

I took mine out with a cutting torch set rather low. Made two cuts 180 apart stoping short of the casting. By the time I turned the torch off the bearing cracked and I could pick it out. This is probably more risky than Franks method but it worked fine for me.

I have also taken a cutoff wheel in a die
grinder and made two cuts (to make two halves)
If you can cut most of the way through they
will crack and pry out. CalJim

F-I-T hit the nail right on the head. I had the same question a number of years ago and I had one person tell me to take a stick welder and run a bead around the race. I didn't believe him and waited another 3-4 months. Then another person said the same thing. Sooooo o, I ran a QUICK bead around the ball race and turned it over to hammer on the back side. To my surprise the race ALL BUT FELL OUT. Trust F-I-T, he has ALL the answers.

John:

Deere originally used a three fingered puller on a slide hamer to remove those races.

If saving the race is of no concern, the single best method of removing one is to run a bead of weld around the inside of it, on the ball bearing track. This will cool and the race will shrink, and most times it will fall out.
